[OE-core] [PATCH 1/1] kernel.bbclass: enable a link for external module building

[nitin.a.kamble at intel.com]

From: Nitin A Kamble <nitin.a.kamble at intel.com>

To build external modules, the link /lib/modules/<kernel-version>/build
must exist, and point to the proper kernel source area.

The kernel-dev package already provides the needed source files. Now
putting a link in place to unblock the external module building.

Fixes Bug:
[YOCTO #2968]
