[PATCH v6 06/11] Makefile: Remove dangerous EOL trailing backslash
Posted by Philippe Mathieu-Daudé 5 years, 8 months ago
One might get caught trying to understand unexpected Makefile
behavior. Trailing backslash can help to split very long lines,
but are rather dangerous when nothing follow. Preserve other
developers debugging time by removing this one.
