[RFC] kbuild: Build samples directory with make modules

[Jim Baxter]

If CONFIG_SAMPLES is enabled with any of the sample
modules enabled, they are only built if the make command
includes uImage and modules (i.e. make uImage modules).

This patches allows the kernel and modules to be built
separately, this is how openembedded and yocto build
the kernel.
