kernel编译报错问题kernel is not clean, please run 'make mrproper'

编译kernel得到以下报错：

为 Android 工程编译内核失败，报错信息为：

    kernel/ is not clean, please run 'make mrproper'

遂执行 make mrproper 命令，但又报错找不到 mrproper 目标。其实我们这时如果在 kernel/Makefile 文件中搜索 “is not clean” 字符串，就可以找到下面这段代码：

这时我们就可以看到，当 kernel/ 目录下存在 .config 文件或在 kernel/include/ 目录下存在 config/ 目录时，shell 就会打印本段开头看到的错误信息并退出。相应的，问题的解决方法就是删除这 2 个对象。进入 kernel/ 目录下查找，不存在 .config 文件；再进入 kernel/include/ 目录下查找，果然发现了 config/ 目录！进入该目录查看发现它竟然是空的。

删除掉 config/ 目录后回到 Android 工程顶层，重新执行 source 和 lunch 命令，重新编译。编译通过！
