From: Alexander Sverdlin <alexander.sverdlin at siemens.com>

... otherwise it could be problematic to build external modules:

make[2]: Entering directory '.../kernel-module-hello-world'
|   CC [M]  hello-world.o
|   MODPOST Module.symvers
|   CC [M]  hello-world.mod.o
|   CC [M]  .module-common.o
|   LD [M]  hello-world.ko
| powerpc-poky-linux-ld.bfd: cannot find arch/powerpc/lib/crtsavres.o: No such file or directory
