When trying to build the compile_commands.json target from an external
module's directory, the following error is displayed:

	make[1]: *** No rule to make target 'scripts/clang-tools/gen_compile_commands.py',
	needed by 'compile_commands.json'. Stop.

This is because gen_compile_commands.py was previously looked up using a
relative path to $(srctree), but commit b1992c3772e6 ("kbuild: use
$(src) instead of $(srctree)/$(src) for source directory") stopped
defining VPATH for external module builds.

Prefixing gen_compile_commands.py with $(srctree) fixes the problem.

Fixes: b1992c3772e6 ("kbuild: use $(src) instead of $(srctree)/$(src) for source directory")
