Is it really useful to have directory optional? (I'm not sure this is useful for
sparse).

This will always run "git submodule update --init" even on top level make
install. This requires "make install" to have internet connection. Therefore I
would prefer to skip kirk on top level "make install".

-FILTER_OUT_DIRS		+= sparse
+FILTER_OUT_DIRS		+= kirk sparse

And what is the difference? I see slightly better having:
'cd tools/kirk && make && make install' than
'git submodule init tools/ltx/ltx-src' or
'git submodule update --init'.

If you don't agree, I'm not against the first version.

Kind regards,
Petr
