kbuild: external modules shall not check config consistency
external modules needs include/linux/autoconf.h and include/config/auto.conf but skip the integrity test of these. Even with a newer Kconfig file we shall just proceed since external modules simply uses the kernel source and shall not attempt to modify it. Error out if a config fiel is missing since they are mandatory. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
