Nice work, thanks. In passing, using
KERNEL_DIR := /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build
should behave properly for normal builds?
On my system,
KERNEL_DIR := /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build
points to the build directory of the running kernel, but only if it
was built with the standard kernel makefiles and installed using `make
modules_install'. Debian kernels seem to lack that symlink. I don't
know how other distributions handle it.
It seemed safer to rely on the traditional /usr/src/linux symlink for
a default, instead. I did not want to assume that the build kernel is
necessarily the one currently running.
