tools/virtio: option to build an out of tree module
Handy for testing with distro kernels. Warn that the resulting module is completely unsupported, and isn't intended for production use. Usage: make oot # builds vhost_test.ko, vhost.ko make oot-clean # cleans out files created Acked-by: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>
