I'm just : suggesting we drop the reference to the exact revision of the master : file so we can commit master file deltas and regenerated files at once. I'm not sure that's a good idea. This has found problems quickly in NetBSD and also in my pccarddevs stuff when I broke things w/o doing the followup commit. There have been instances in NetBSD where failure to follow this proceedure caused the old file to be committed, with the new entries not in the generated file. However, I now have some motivation to look into this problem in the form of an open PR owned by me :-) The issues that bruce and I raise are easy enough to fix, but it will take a little bit of grunt to make sure that all the ways the kernel build process happens work.
