Once in a while I see build errors similar to the following when building images from a clean tree. Building powerpc:virtex-ml507:44x/virtex5_defconfig ... failed ------------ Error log: arch/powerpc/boot/treeboot-akebono.c:37:20: fatal error: libfdt.h: No such file or directory Building powerpc🎍smpdev:44x/bamboo_defconfig ... failed ------------ Error log: arch/powerpc/boot/treeboot-akebono.c:37:20: fatal error: libfdt.h: No such file or directory arch/powerpc/boot/treeboot-currituck.c:35:20: fatal error: libfdt.h: No such file or directory Rebuilds will succeed. Turns out that several source files in arch/powerpc/boot/ include libfdt.h, but Makefile dependencies are incomplete. Let's fix that.
