If this function fails to touch a dummy header due to missing parent
directory, then it creates it and touches the file again.
This was needed because CONFIG_FOO_BAR was previously tracked by
include/config/foo/bar.h. (include/config/foo/ may not exist here)
This is no longer the case since commit 0e0345b77a ("kbuild: redo
fake deps at include/config/*.h"); now all the fake headers are placed
right under include/config/, like include/config/FOO_BAR.
Do not try to create parent directory, include/config/, which already
exists.

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 Restructured Text 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.
