build options

Hi,

While using the build command to build a driver, there is one option that
specifies a multiprocessor build.

What is this option used for,
is it for a target MP driver or is it that the machine building the driver
is a mp machine.

> -M build options tells build it should use more processors on SMP machine

for its job. It works only if multiple DIRS are built at once, there is no
effect if only one SOURCES file is used. If there is a DIRS file and
contains multiple directories, build start building for separate
directories in parallel until number of available (or allowed) processors
is reached. It can lead to problems when there are dependencies between
directories.
