kbuild: fix modules_install after a 'make vmlinux'
make vmlinux would delete the content of $(MODVERDIR) equals .tmp_versions. This caused a subsequent make modules_install to fail. Fix it so we clean the directory only for the modules build - but we still unconditionally create it so we can do: make dir/file.ko without a preceeding make modules.
