Commit 6c2f0b28d7 ("docs: Makefile: store __pycache__ at the output
directory") assigns a new path to PYTHONPYCACHEPREFIX for building
kernel documentation.
However, it is not necessarily optimal for everyone.
If you find PYTHONPYCACHEPREFIX is already set, it strongly suggests
that the developer has selected the setting as best suited for one's own
workflow.
Use "?=" in the assignment to PYTHONPYCACHEPREFIX so that the path of
$(abspath $(BUILDDIR)/__pycache__) works only as a safeguard.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
