Etienne Dechamps 94aac9c9bc Use MODULE variable in module Makefile like zfs.
In zfs, each module Makefile contains a MODULE variable which contains
the name of the module, and the following declarations reference this
variable.

In spl, there is a MODULES variable which is never used. Rename it to
MODULE and use it like in zfs. This improves consistency between the two
build systems.

README.markdown

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 dont want the overhead of maintaining a large patch which converts Solaris primitives to Linux primitives.

To build packages for your distribution:

$ ./configure
$ make pkg

Full documentation for building, configuring, and using the SPL can be found at: http://zfsonlinux.org
