Lucas De Marchi 23603f1f83 build: cache modules from playground 
Now that we are able to build our own test modules, also allow to use
cached modules so a) kernel headers are not required and b) distro
maintainers are happy.  It's still need a "--disable-test-modules" in
the configure since the default is enabled.

There's no license problems anymore since all modules come from our own
repository, we ship the sources and the modules can be easily rebuilt.

Pre-compiled modules
====================

Some modules are pre-compiled due to needing cross-compilers present on the
build/dev machine which is inconvenient. Makefile is ready to compile them again
in case they are missing:

1) Prepare the linux kernel trees to build external modules, i.e.:

   kernel $ make ARCH=<arch> CROSS_COMPILER=<cross-compiler-prefix> defconfig
   kernel $ make ARCH=<arch> CROSS_COMPILER=<cross-compiler-prefix> modules_prepare

   For each architecture. See the Makefile to check which are the supported architectures.

2) Export the variables below to point to the right place:

   KDIR_<arch>:                for each architecture it needs to point to a
                               kernel tree configured as in (1)

   CROSS_COMPILER_<arch:       for each architecture it needs to point to the
			       correct toolchain prefix. Leave it blank if a
			       cross-compiler is not needed (example: you are
			       building a 32b module with a multilib compiler).


3) Remove every %-<arch>.ko. After this the build system will recreate them.
