Hi Alexey.
Based on the number of patches hitting tags/cscope support at the moment
it is becoming obvious that this have to live outside the top-level
Makefile.
So any improvements in this area has to start with ripping
it all out of the top-level Makefile and add it to a shell
script in scripts/tags.sh (or similar).
If no-one betas me I will do so when I start to look into
non-bugfixes for kbuild.
So I will not take your patch right now. Not because it is
wrong, but simple to avoid changes to the top-level Makefile
when this must happen in a shell script.
Sam
