Right they are generated in the build tree but if it is not the same
as srctree it will not work due to CFLAGS.

We generate other files like asm-offsets.h and it could in fact be that
both srctree and build tree are already in include path.

There is in makefile a rule already removing asm-offsets.h which is generated
and this one does not use a prefix so we should follow this standard in fact.

So we should not use any prefix (srctree or obj) i think.

@anthony: any suggestion here ?
