kvmtool doesn't have a dependency on the external libfdt library anymore,
remove the instructions to compile and install it.

Optional libraries

The cross-compiler will look for target libraries in its SYSROOT directory,
so you need to put the header and library files (.so) there.
While most cross compiler packages come with the target's glibc already
-installed, optional libraries (or libfdt) maybe not.
-On multiarch system you should be able to install those be appending
-the architecture name after the package (example for ARM64):
-$ sudo apt-get install libfdt-dev:arm64
-
-PowerPC, ARM/ARM64 and RISC-V require libfdt to be installed. If you cannot use
-precompiled mulitarch packages, you could either copy the required header and
-library files from an installed target system into the SYSROOT (you will need
-/usr/include/*fdt*.h and /usr/lib64/libfdt-v.v.v.so and its symlinks), or you
-can cross-compile the libfdt library yourself:
-
-$ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/utils/dtc/dtc.git
-$ cd dtc
-$ export CC=${CROSS_COMPILE}gcc
-$ TRIPLET=$($CC -dumpmachine)
-$ SYSROOT=$($CC -print-sysroot)
-$ make libfdt
-$ sudo make DESTDIR=$SYSROOT PREFIX=/usr LIBDIR=/usr/lib/$TRIPLET install-lib install-includes
-
-This assumes a multiarch-enabled system, if there is no per-arch directory for
-libraries, replace the LIBDIR paths above with LIBDIR=/usr/lib or /usr/lib64.
+installed, optional libraries may not be present.
