Since a while, the semantic of BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB has been changed
from "prefer static libraries when possible" to "use only static
libraries". The former semantic didn't make much sense, since the user
had absolutely no control/idea of which package would use static
libraries, and which packages would not. Therefore, for quite some
time, we have been starting to enforce that BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB
should really build everything with static libraries.
As a consequence, this patch renames BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to
BR2_STATIC_LIBS, and adjust the Config.in option accordingly.
This also helps preparing the addition of other options to select
shared, shared+static or just static.
Note that we have verified that this commit can be reproduced by
simply doing a global rename of BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to
BR2_STATIC_LIBS plus adding BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to Config.in.legacy.

fine if autotools infra was already present.
And didn't work before the automake patch with AUTORECONF=YES because of

kmod uses certain features not available on older RHEL 5 machines (RedHat
Enterprise Linux). This commit adds two patches to fix that.
Both patches have been proposed upstream, the second one being accepted, the
first rejected with the suggestion to add the patch in Buildroot instead.

Since the trailing slash is stripped from $($(PKG)_SITE) by pkg-generic.mk:
$(call DOWNLOAD,$($(PKG)_SITE:/=)/$($(PKG)_SOURCE))
so it is redundant.
This patch removes it from $(PKG)_SITE variable for BR consistency.

In the Config.in file of package foo, it often happens that there are other
symbols besides BR2_PACKAGE_FOO. Typically, these symbols only make sense
when foo itself is enabled. There are two ways to express this: with
depends on BR2_PACKAGE_FOO
in each extra symbol, or with
if BR2_PACKAGE_FOO
...
endif
around the entire set of extra symbols.
The if/endif approach avoids the repetition of 'depends on' statements on
multiple symbols, so this is clearly preferred. But even when there is only
one extra symbol, if/endif is a more logical choice:
- it is future-proof for when extra symbols are added
- it allows to have just one strategy instead of two (less confusion)
This patch modifies the Config.in files accordingly.

Since kmod 14, the support for building a static library has been
removed completely from kmod. Therefore, we mark kmod as
!BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB, as well as all its reverse dependencies, which
includes the option to use the "udev" /dev management method.

Since module-init-tools is deprecated, we now want to use kmod instead
for the installation of modules during the kernel build process. In
order to do this, we need to be able to build a host variant of kmod,
which is want this patch allows to do.
Note that only the depmod tool is installed on the host, since that's
the only one likely to be used on the host in a cross-compilation
context.
[Peter: needs AUTORECONF for the host as well. Fix comment while we're at it]
