Lots of packages fail in buildbot (cryptodev-linux, hostapd, openssl, ...)

Might be related to symvers handling by:

https://git.openwrt.org/?p=openwrt/openwrt.git;a=commitdiff;h=5d7606562940b52206712bb4bc274ad39521c3e1

E.g. cryptodev-linux fails like:  `cryptodev-linux.symvers: No such file or 
directory`


make[4]: Leaving directory

And exfat fails:

That commit moved the `mkdir -p $(PKG_SYMVERS_DIR)` step and removed 
Module.symvers creation.

Possibly in a way that buildbot does not like  (although the build may 
succeed on a unified build process in a local buildhost).
