[LTP] [PATCH v2 1/1] Makefile: Add kernel modules related make targets

LTP contains few kernel modules and tests which are using them. These
require to be built with the same kernel headers as the running kernel
(SUT). Sometimes the best way to achieve this is to compile them on the
SUT.
Add 'modules', 'modules-clean' and 'modules-install' make targets to
make it easier to build them.

Hi,
I'm sorry for the noise.
Most of the people will need just modules-install, but let's be
consistent with other LTP make targets.
Kind regards,
Petr
Changes v1->v2:
* Add also modules-clean and modules-install
This is needed as 'make modules clean' or 'make modules install'
would be running 2 separate targets.

+Kernel modules
+--------------
+
+LTP contains few kernel modules and tests which are using them.
+These require to be built with the same kernel headers as the running kernel (SUT).
+Sometimes the best way to achieve this is to compile them on the SUT.
+
+'modules', 'modules-clean' and 'modules-install' make targets are shortcuts
+to build just these modules and tests.
