The raw_pylibcpupower.i is removed unexpectedly after 'make mrproper'
We can reproduce the error by performing the following steps:
cd linux-next
make mrproper
cd tools/power/cpupower/bindings/python
make
We will get an error message:
make: *** No rule to make target 'raw_pylibcpupower.i', needed by 'raw_pylibcpupower_wrap.c'. Stop.
The root cause:
The *.i files are already used for pre-processor output files and
the kernel removes all the *.i files by 'make mrproper'.
That explains why the raw_pylibcpupower.i is removed by 'make mrproper'.
To fix it, Follow John's suggestion to rename raw_pylibcpupower.i to
raw_pylibcpupower.swg.
