The only experience I have in compiling kernel modules has been as part of
compiling the kernel itself.  And I haven't done much of that.  At a
certain point during a kernel compile, you issue something like
make_modules, which creates the modules for the kernel you're compiling.
Never done it, or heard of it done (not that it necessarily sounds
unreasonable or anything) separately.
