Subject: kernel-dev: Added kernel-devsrc information for building on target

I added a clarifying paragraph at the start of the section that talks
about building on the target hardware.  Included kernel-devsrc and
rationale for why a user would even do this (it is not normal).

+                to include kernel modules as part of the normal build
+                process, you might find it useful to build modules on the
+                target.
+                This could be the case if your target system is capable
+                and powerful enough to handle the necessary compilation.
+                Before deciding to build on your target, however, you should

                 If you want to be able to build out-of-tree modules on
                 the target, there are some steps you need to take
                 on the target that is running your SDK image.
                 Briefly, the <filename>kernel-dev</filename> package
                 is installed by default on all

                 However, you need to create some scripts prior to
                 attempting to build the out-of-tree modules on the target
                 that is running that image.
