    kconfig: Add LSMOD=file to override the lsmod for localmodconfig · 615f0833
    Steven Rostedt authored
    Doing the following:
    
    	make LSMOD=file localmodconfig
    
    Will make the streamline-config code use the given file instead of
    lsmod. If the file is an executable, it will execute it, otherwise
    it will read it as text.
    
    	make LSMOD=/my/local/path/lsmod localmodconfig
    
    The above will execute the lsmod in /my/local/path instead of the
    lsmods that may be located elsewhere.
    
    	make LSMOD=embedded_board_lsmod localmodconfig
    
    The above will read the "embedded_board_lsmod" as a text file. This
    is useful if you are doing a cross compile and need to run the
    config against modules that exist on an embedded device.
    
    Note, if the LSMOD= file does is not a path, it will add the
    path to the object directory. That is, the above example will look
    for "embedded_board_lsmod" in the directory that the binary will
    be built in (the O=dir directory).
