Update with Kbuild split and dkms.conf #13

Closed parkerlreed closed 4 years ago

I've renamed the DKMS module and changed the destination directory so that it replaces the original module. I think this is what users expect from DKMS installed modules.

I've adjusted the instructions in the README and added the clean target so DKMS doesn't throw errors.

I did it myself because I've used DKMS as a user but hadn't ever done a DKMS package and I had to check how it worked before asking any changes. At this point I think it will be easier commiting my changes than changing this PR and merging. I'll keep you as the author of the commit for your contribution if you don't mind.

Oh sweet so that's just overwriting the existing module?
