[PATCH] tools: iio: add ability to pass kernel headers

From: Sekhar Nori

Very often, especially when cross compiling, there is a need
to pass kernel headers different from those installed on the
build machine.

Add support for doing this for iio utils by using the
'INSTALL_HDR_PATH' environment variable. This is supported by
'make headers_install' for installing kernel headers at a
user specified location. So you will do:

$ make headers_install ARCH=arm INSTALL_HDR_PATH=<absolute-path>
$ make -C tools/iio ARCH=arm INSTALL_HDR_PATH=<absolute-path>
