kbuild: add more hints about SUBDIRS replacement
Commit0126be38d9
("kbuild: announce removal of SUBDIRS if used") added a hint about the 'SUBDIRS' replacement, but it was not clear enough. Multiple people sent me similar questions, patches. For instance, https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/1/17/456 I did not mean to use M= for building a subdirectory in the kernel tree. From commit669efc76b3
("net: hns3: fix compile error"), people already (ab)use M=... to do that because it seems to work to some extent. Documentation/kbuild/kbuild.txt says M= and KBUILD_EXTMOD are used for building external modules. In fact, Kbuild supports the single target '%/' for this purpose, but this may not be noticed much. Kindly add more hints.
