Most, if not all, Linux distributions provides a Linux development
package which purpose is to support the building of out-of-tree modules
without providing the entire source tree.
What ends up in this development directory is a mixture of source
files (mainly headers) and generated ones (headers, and tools produced
by `make modules_prepare`).
This patch is an attempt to generate a tarball archive containing all
required files to build external modules. It could be than reused by
packagers.
