Subject[PATCH 1/1 linux-next] kbuild: add make force=1 for testing
Date
Commit 51193b76bfff
("kbuild: forbid kernel directory to contain spaces and colons")

makes it impossible to build kernel on default SD labels like
"SD Card" for instance.

Makefile:133: *** main directory cannot contain spaces nor colons. Stop.

User could rename directories but volume name is not always writable.

This patch adds ability to do make force=1 for people
not interested in modules_install in this case but only testing.

(Note that other options could go under ifndef force)
