[PATCH 4/5] kbuild: asm symlink support for arch/$ARCH/include

[Sam Ravnborg]

Adjust the asm symlink support so we do not create the
symlink unless really needed.
We check the precense of include/asm-$ARCH by checking
for the system.h file. We may end up with a stale directory
so it is not enough to check if the directory is present.

For "make O=..." build if we see that asm is a symlink
then it is deleted. This happens when we apply this patch
to a kernel with a valid build - so we do not require
a "make mrproper".
