kernel/linux: symlink custom kernel source dir with '-f'

build fails to symlink to custom kernel dir when the build is not the first time
because of 'ln -s' without '-f' option.

     1 Original patch from H.J. Lu, as reported there:

     3 
     4 fnstsw stores 16bit into %ax. The upper 16bit of %eax is unchanged.
     5 The new assembler (binutils-2.18.50.0.4 and up) will disallow "fnstsw %eax".
