One day I will figure out how to write a cover letter :)

The matching OE-core patchset is in denzil-next for testing and will
hopefully get merged soon (provided it passes the testsuite).

My main objective is to support on-target builds of external kernel-modules
and initial reports are that it is working as expected.

Since there's a bitbake.conf change needed the matching oe-core set needs to
go in first and ideally this goes in right after that (provided this passes
the testsuite as well).

As you can imagine, this kind of inter-layer dependency sucks, but I don't
see a way around it in this case with the bitbake.conf change.
