Before this change, the user should go first to kernel dir, do a make
*config, to generate the required files to build menu. While this is not
an issue to advanced users, it is not good to newbies.

We may include a check for *conf at v4l makefile before calling kernel
make. This will avoid building if it is already there.

Yes, but it would be safe to have it inside HOSTCC, since . will mean
kernel source dir. Anyway, we may have cleaner ways for doing it.

What's happening? Just compiling without needing, or something else is
broken? What kernel version?

Cheers,
