kbuild: gitignore output directory
When compiling into output directory using O=, many files created under KBUILD_OUTPUT that git considers as new ones; git clients, ex. "git gui" lists it, and it clutters file list making it difficult to see what was really changed Generate .gitignore in output directory that ignores all its content Signed-off-by: Vladimir Kondratiev <vladimir.kondratiev@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>
