Summary: buildroot hotplug requires linux to compile
Description:
When compiling using buildroot, you can select hotplug, which will fail to
compile if there is no linux target defined as it needs modules directory.

No no no. There are multiple tasks that hotplug addresses, and only
one of them involves modules.
Two others that don't involve modules are (a) running device setup
scripts, e.g. telling a daemon about the device, and (b) doing the
stuff "udev" does, making device nodes.
Plus, buildroot should not depend on having a kernel built; it's
just there to build the root file system. At this point only
pcmcia-cs even thinks it needs a kernel (bridge module patch is
in the patch database) and even that's just because of stupid
build rules in the pcmcia tools package ... soon to be replaced
by normal hotplugging.
Do NOT merge this patch!
