Subject: Makefile: delete default rules
X-Git-Url: https://git.libre-soc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6bb7430a20871ad4e3ccbc8c1992d60117214be2;p=buildroot.git

Makefile: delete default rules

We don't use the default implicit rules that are added by make, so
they just slow down the Makefile processing. The default implicit
rules can be removed by defining an empty .SUFFIXES: target.

This speeds up the start of the build on my machine from 5.6s to
4.9s.
