It's sometimes useful to have this function available to recipes which
don't wish to use module.bbclass for whatever reason.

The update-modules mechanism is something of a historical relic and it isn't
entirely clear that it has a great deal of value nowadays. Also, it causes a
problem when building a read-only rootfs since update-modules itself refuses
to configure offline.
Allow DISTROs to circumvent this whole thing by declaring (via DISTRO_FEATURES)
that they don't wish to use update-modules. This is backfilled for existing
distributions and will have to be marked as CONSIDERED by those who actually
don't want it.

* depmod already gets executed by pkg_postinst_kernel-image.
* If you build a module using module.bbclass, pkg_postinst returns 1 in
do_rootfs, causing pkg_postinst to run again on first boot. To improve
this situation, I copied pkg_postinst from kernel.bbclass to module.bbclass.
This was rejected by Koen, because he doesn't like the code from
kernel.bblcass, which uses ${STAGING_DIR_KERNEL}. Richard then suggested
that calling depmod during do_rootfs wasn't necessary at all, because
it already gets done by kernel-image.

When external modules are built, files in $STAGING_KERNEL_DIR/scripts/basic will/can get
rebuilt.
This raises a potential race condition. Prevent this by adding a lock around the
do_make_scripts() function. Further, make sure that the kernel has been installed
to the sysroot, prior to executing this new task.

out-of-tree modules
The existing infrastructure uses an external build tree which references the
kernel source in the work dir. If run with rm work, building external modules
will fail.
This patch places a configured source tree in sysroots. Striking a balance
between minimal size and minimal maintenance is difficult. A fully configured
tree is about 500MB after a clean. This version leans on the side of caution and
removes only the obviously unecessary parts of the source tree to conserve
space, resulting in about 170MB. The arch directories would be some additional
pruning we could do. Given examples from the devel package from distributions, I
suspect this size could be reduced to 75MB or so, but at the cost of a much more
complex recipe which is likely to require a great deal more maintenance to keep
current with kernel releases.
Care is also taken to clean the hostprogs in scripts, and the modules are
responsible for building them as needed. Although it is unclear to me if this is
really necessary, especially considering that modules put these bits back as
soon as they compile. If we are not generating an sstate package, I suspect we
can ignore these.
Please try this with your modules and let me know how it does. I tried to take
non linux-yocto kernel recipes into account, but I have only tested with
linux-yocto and the hello-mod recipe so far.

This fixes [BUGID #241]
The kernel hostprogs are built for the host architecture. They should not be
deployed to the target, and they should not be included in an sstate package
which might get reused on a host of a different architecture.
As we don't build many out-of-tree modules, this patch takes the approach of
building the hostprogs as part of the module compile process with a
do_compile_prepend() routine in module.bbclass.
We don't have to clean the hostprogs as modules depend on the kernel being
populate_staging, so its done with the staging directory by the time we run.
