I tried to replace our current makefiles and config system.
I am intimidated by deep Makefile wizardry,
and therefore I cowardly took kernel's one instead of fixing the one
which we have now.
I think that it is not likely for kernel system to stop changing,
so I resisted the desire to remove parts of it which are not needed
for busybox. I would rather keep it as little changed as possible

The patchset is the one which I consider more-or-less
usable. At least it seems to build allyesconfig and allnoconfig.
1.patch - remove Makefile[.in], add Kbuild, tweak Config.in
in every directory
2.patch - small fixes
3.patch - small fixes
4.patch - delete old build system & scripts, add new one
5.patch - small fix
6.patch - (try to) add back make targets like "sizes" etc.
7.patch - fix dependency on BB_BT. make was rebuilding everything
