kbuild: clarify where to run make mrproper when out-of-tree fails
If you try out-of-tree build with an unclean source tree, Kbuild
suggests to run make mrproper. The path to the source tree may be
shown with a relative path, for example, "make O=foo" emits the
following:
.. is not clean, please run 'make mrproper'
in the '..' directory.
This is somewhat confusing if you ran "make O=foo" in the source tree.
Using the absolute path will be clearer.
This commit changes the error message like follows:
***
*** The source tree is not clean, please run 'make mrproper'
*** in /absolute/path/to/linux
***
