Subject: binman: Do not pollute source tree when build with `make O=...`
X-Git-Url: http://git.dujemihanovic.xyz/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=022f6b0643ee7cf6f9474b768ba2aa802762980b;p=u-boot.git

binman: Do not pollute source tree when build with `make O=...`

Importing libraries in Python caches the bytecode by default.
Since we run scripts in source tree it ignores the current directory
settings, which is $(srctree), and creates cache just in the middle
of the source tree. Move cache to the current directory.
