For example, I have O=build-mt8365_evk so the build directory is a subdirectory of the source directory. This causes $(srctree) to be ".." and therefore the link is: build-mt8365_evk/include/asm/arch -> ../arch/arm/include/asm/arch-mediatek Obviously, there should be a few more ../ in there or it should use an absolute path. I'm guessing previously $(KBUILD_SRC) was an absolute path? I will see if I can come up with a fix unless someone has any immediate suggestions.
