kbuild: support building external modules in a separate build directory
There has been a long-standing request to support building external modules in a separate build directory. This commit introduces a new environment variable, KBUILD_EXTMOD_OUTPUT, and its shorthand Make variable, MO. A simple usage: $ make -C <kernel-dir> M=<module-src-dir> MO=<module-build-dir> Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Nicolas Schier <nicolas@fjasle.eu>
