	Remove ia64 from Makefile to move the test to selftests. Update ia64 Makefile to work under selftests. ia64 will not be run as part of selftests suite and will not be included in install targets. They can be built separately for now. The original Makefile built this test on all archirectures and this update doesn't change that.

2014-09-26	Documentation: use subdir-y to avoid unnecessary built-in.o files	Peter Foley	1	-3/+0
	Change the Documentation makefiles from obj-m to subdir-y to avoid generating unnecessary built-in.o files since nothing in Documentation/ is ever linked in to vmlinux.

2008-08-12	docsrc: build Documentation/ sources	Randy Dunlap	1	-0/+8
	Currently source files in the Documentation/ sub-dir can easily bit-rot since they are not generally buildable, either because they are hidden in text files or because there are no Makefile rules for them. This needs to be fixed so that the source files remain usable and good examples of code instead of bad examples. Add the ability to build source files that are in the Documentation/ dir. Add to Kconfig as "BUILD_DOCSRC" config symbol. Use "CONFIG_BUILD_DOCSRC=1 make ..." to build objects from the Documentation/ sources. Or enable BUILD_DOCSRC in the *config system. However, this symbol depends on HEADERS_CHECK since the header files need to be installed (for userspace builds). Built (using cross-tools) for x86-64, i386, alpha, ia64, sparc32, sparc64, powerpc, sh, m68k, & mips.
