Commit Message

Kernel headers must be installed into $(objtree)/usr/include to avoid
the build failure of samples.

Commit ddea05fa148b ("kbuild: make samples depend on headers_install")
addressed this, but "samples/" is only used for the single target build.

"make samples/" properly installs kernel headers, but it does not work
for general building because a phony target "sample" (no trailing slash)
is used.

David,
Could you check this patch, please?

Will you apply this to your tree
to fix the vfs sample issue?

Please let me know your thought.

Thanks.
