Subject: [PATCH 22/23] kbuild: make wrapper Makefile more convenient for external modules
When Kbuild starts building in a separate output directory, it generates
a wrapper Makefile, allowing you to invoke 'make' from the output
directory.
This commit makes it more convenient, so you can invoke 'make' without
M= or MO=.
First, you need to build external modules in a separate directory:
$ make M=/path/to/module/source/dir MO=/path/to/module/build/dir
Once the wrapper Makefile is generated in /path/to/module/build/dir,
you can proceed as follows:
$ cd /path/to/module/build/dir
$ make
