Prakash Surya d83d25c2f8 Support building a spl-modules-dkms sub package
This commit adds support for building a spl-modules-dkms sub package
built around Dynamic Kernel Module Support. This is to allow building
packages using the DKMS infrastructure which is intended to ease the
burden of kernel version changes, upgrades, etc.

By default spl-modules-dkms-* sub package will be built as part of
the 'make rpm' target.  Alternately, you can build only the DKMS
module package using the 'make rpm-dkms' target.

Examples:

    # To build packaged binaries as well as a dkms packages
    $ ./configure && make rpm

    # To build only the packaged binary utilities and dkms packages
    $ ./configure && make rpm-utils rpm-dkms

Note: Only the RHEL 5/6, CHAOS 5, and Fedora distributions are
      supported for building the dkms sub package.
