Initramfs images were using a common rootfs (TARGET_DIR) for all
devices, ignoring TARGET_PER_DEVICE_ROOTFS. If a single device required
a package to build a functional initramfs image, it should be included
by default for all devices or that device should be isolated into a new
subtarget. Now the initramfs will be built using the target-specific
Implementing Per Device Rootfs for Initramfs is not trivial as the
rootfs needs to be embedded in the kernel image. The kernel supports an
option to define the initramfs location and the image generation for the
kernel can't be run in parallel as other checks are done to config and
other arch dependent files.
To handle this, we prepare a config for each rootfs and we generate the
images under lock to prevent problem with parallel execution.

When building UML this showed up as of late (2022-09-01):
| Makefile:1335: *** Headers not exportable for UML. Stop.
This message popped up because of an upstream patch that
fixed this error not showing up sooner. For more information see:
<https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20220901011252.550830-1-masahiroy@kernel.org/T/>
Now, I don't think we can just skip the kernel headers.
Some userspace applications are going to need these. So,
The next best alternative I can think of, is to go with
the headers by the host arch the UML is compiled for.
(Technically, ARCH= should be safe for all other targets
as well... But let's not poke a hornet's nest)

The $(LINUX_DIR)/.config timesptamp changes between runs of
make target/compile and make target/install (which builds the image).
Kernel-dependent packages and out of tree modules are built in between
those runs, and they check the .config timestamp to decide if they need
to be rebuilt.
Save the target/compile .config to use its timestamp if the file does
not change between runs. That way the subsequent kernel packages are
not unnecessarily rebuilt when you run 'make' back to back.

This fixes a regression introduced with commit
5ed1e5140a ("build: build kernel image
before building modules/packages").
Before this commit the make target would always include "modules",
resulting in a MODPOST and a complete Module.symvers file. Since this
commit a MODPOST of the kernel modules is not guaranteed for kernels <
5.10. This results in some broken SDKs in which external packages that
depend on exported symbols from kernel modules fail to compile.
Adding "modules" back to the calls to the CompileImage defines fixes the
regression. For kernels > 5.10 this is not needed, but it doesn't cause
any harm either.
Tested with kernels 5.4.x and 5.10.x.

Before this commit, it was assumed that mkhash is in the PATH. While
this was fine for the normal build workflow, this led to some issues if
make TOPDIR="$(pwd)" -C "$pkgdir" compile
was called manually. In most of the cases, I just saw warnings like this:
make: Entering directory '/home/.../package/gluon-status-page'
bash: line 1: mkhash: command not found
bash: line 1: mkhash: command not found
bash: line 1: mkhash: command not found
bash: line 1: mkhash: command not found
bash: line 1: mkhash: command not found
bash: line 1: mkhash: command not found
bash: line 1: mkhash: command not found
bash: line 1: mkhash: command not found
[...]
While these were only warnings and the package still compiled sucessfully,
I also observed that some package even fail to build because of this.
After applying this commit, the variable $(MKHASH) is introduced. This
variable points to $(STAGING_DIR_HOST)/bin/mkhash, which is always the
correct path.

Instead of embedding the initrd cpio archive into the kernel, allow
for having an external ramdisk added to the FIT or uImage.
This is useful to overcome kernel size limitations present in many
stock bootloaders, as the ramdisk is then loaded seperately and doesn't
add to the kernel size. Hence we can have larger ramdisks to host ie.
installers with all binaries to flash included (or a web-based
firmware selector).
In terms of performance and total size the differences are neglectible.
