We are setting up sources for building external modules like this:
/usr/src/linux-obj> # create a .config file
/usr/src/linux-obj> make -C /usr/src/linux O=$PWD oldconfig
/usr/src/linux-obj> make -C /usr/src/linux O=$PWD prepare
/usr/src/linux-obj> make -C /usr/src/linux O=$PWD scripts
/usr/src/linux-obj> make -C /usr/src/linux O=$PWD clean
After that, external modules can be built with:
/usr/src/module> make -C /usr/src/linux-obj M=$PWD
This fails for ppc32 because the `make clean' removes the
arch/powerpc/include directory. This should be done in archmrproper
instead of in archclean.
