KBUILD EXTMOD: Don't echo test -e for autoconf.h, even in verbose mode
PATCH 1/1 KBUILD EXTMOD: Don't echo test -e for autoconf.h, even in verbose mode
The top-level Makefile tests to make sure autoconf.h is present before building external modules. This test is performed silently unless KBUILD_VERBOSE is set, in which case the test, along with the error messages that gets printed when the test fails, shows up in make output, regardless of whether the test succeeds.
Although there may be some utility in actually printing the test along with the error message when building with KBUILD_VERBOSE, in practice, the error message can confuse people building external modules.
