Running "make modules_install" may fail with
make[2]: execvp: /bin/sh: Argument list too long
if many modules are built and INSTALL_MOD_PATH is long. This is because
scripts/Makefile.modinst creates all directories with one mkdir command.
Use $(foreach ...) instead to prevent an excessive argument list.
Fixes: 2dfec887c0 ("kbuild: reduce the number of mkdir calls during modules_install")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
