Changes v2 -> v3:
 * Add info about supported Linux version in Config.in
   (suggested by Baruch)

Changes v1 -> v2:
 * Adapt to new linux-tools infra, which is moved to package/ directory
   (suggested by Yann)

Any reason not to use $(LINUX_MAKE_FLAGS) in the first place?

    GPIO_MAKE_OPTS = $(LINUX_MAKE_FLAGS)

LINUX_MAKE_FLAGS shall contain all the required variable definitions
needed to build for the target.

Yes, cpupower directly defines CROSS_COMPILE et al., but perf and
selftests do use LINUX_MAKE_FLAGS, and I think we should use that unless
there is a good reason not to.

This would allow use to easily update the compile options/variables.

(Sorry, I forgot to point that out in the previous review...)

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.

I just did it similar to cpupower package. But using LINUX_MAKE_FLAGS
looks like a better option.

What about specifying also DESTDIR together:
GPIO_MAKE_OPTS = $(LINUX_MAKE_FLAGS) DESTDIR=$(TARGET_DIR)
so we can simplify GPIO_INSTALL_TARGET_CMDS?
This would be similar to perf package.

No, please specify DESTDIR only at install time.

 This is because in general, there may also be installation to staging or
images, and in those cases DESTDIR should be STAGING_DIR resp. IMAGES_DIR. So
adding DESTDIR to the general _MAKE_OPTS is semantically incorrect.
