-	When an architecture has a set of exported headers that needs to be
-	exported to a different directory destination-y is used.
-	destination-y specifies the destination directory for all exported
-	headers in the file where it is present.

-		Example:
-			#arch/xtensa/platforms/s6105/include/platform/Kbuild
-			destination-y := include/linux

-	In the example above all exported headers in the Kbuild file
-	will be located in the directory "include/linux" when exported.
