It doesn't make any sense for Buildroot to provide "make modules". This
is a *Linux* build target, not a *Buildroot* build target. You
certainly don't need Buildroot to provide "make modules" to build
external kernel modules outside of Buildroot.
I would need to look at how EtherCAT works to provide more details here.
