This change makes sense.
I have a not-yet-submitted patch series where I added some more
config/*/*.txt that wouldn't be caught by this rule, I'd updated the
Documentation/Makefile, but missed this part in the top-level Makefile.
So a relation question: Does anyone actually prefer this state of
affairs of having a Makefile, Documentation/Makefile, t/Makefile
t/perf/Makefile and template/Makefile?
It seems to me with ever-closer coupling between them that it's getting
to be more of a hassle to manage state between them than it would be to
just move them all into one big Makefile.
