@@ -776,6 +776,13 @@ This will delete the directory debian, including all subdirectories.
 Kbuild will assume the directories to be in the same relative path as the
 Makefile if no absolute path is specified (path does not start with '/').
 
+To exclude certain files from make clean, use the $(no-clean-files) variable.
+This is only a special case used in the top level Kbuild file:
+
+        Example:
+                #Kbuild
+                no-clean-files := $(bounds-file) $(offsets-file)
+
 Usually kbuild descends down in subdirectories due to "obj-* := dir/",
 but in the architecture makefiles where the kbuild infrastructure
 is not sufficient this sometimes needs to be explicit.
