-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------

From: Roman Zippel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

The as-instr/ld-option need to create temporary files, but create them in the
output directory, when compiling external modules.  Reformat them a bit and
use $(CC) instead of $(AS) as the former is used by kbuild to assemble files.
