kernel.bbclass: enable a link for external module building
Even though the kernel-dev package provides the required support for building external kernel modules on the target, some commonly used scripts and utilities fail as they are not finding the kernel module build support files at the desired location. Create the /lib/modules/<kernel-version>/build link on target pointing to the sources provided by the kernel-dev package, to fix the issue. Fixes Bug: [YOCTO #2968] (From OE-Core rev: aafa4bc896eb944aa4fc406807dd7e02f4b9b7ba) Signed-off-by: Nitin A Kamble <nitin.a.kamble@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
