This commit introduces a "copy-builtin" script designed to prepare a kernel source tree for building SPL as a builtin module. The script makes a full copy of all needed files, thus making the kernel source tree fully independent of the spl source package. To achieve that, some compilation flags (-include, -I) have been moved to module/Makefile. This Makefile is only used when compiling external modules; when compiling builtin modules, a Kbuild file generated by the configure-builtin script is used instead. This makes sure Makefiles inside the kernel source tree does not contain references to the spl source package. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <behlendorf1@llnl.gov> Issue zfsonlinux/zfs#851

The Solaris Porting Layer (SPL) is a Linux kernel module which provides many of the Solaris kernel APIs. This shim layer makes it possible to run Solaris kernel code in the Linux kernel with relatively minimal modification. This can be particularly useful when you want to track upstream Solaris development closely and don’t want the overhead of maintaining a large patch which converts Solaris primitives to Linux primitives.
To build packages for your distribution:
$ ./configure
$ make pkg
To copy the kernel code inside your kernel source tree for builtin compilation:
$ ./configure --enable-linux-builtin --with-linux=/usr/src/linux-...
$ ./copy-builtin /usr/src/linux-...
Full documentation for building, configuring, and using the SPL can be found at: http://zfsonlinux.org
