 Kbuild will assume the directories to be in the same relative path as the
 Makefile if no absolute path is specified (path does not start with '/').
 
+To exclude certain files from make clean, use the $(no-clean-files) variable.
+This is only a special case used in the top level Kbuild file:

+	Example:
+		#Kbuild
+		no-clean-files := $(bounds-file) $(offsets-file)

 Usually kbuild descends down in subdirectories due to "obj-* := dir/",
 but in the architecture makefiles where the kbuild infrastructure
 is not sufficient this sometimes needs to be explicit.
