It is indeed possible to build those module packages. After dkms
build, cd to /var/lib/dkms/$MODULE$/$MOD_VERS$/build and execute

KVERS=`uname -r` fakeroot debian/rules binary-modules

This will create the correct $MODULE-module-$KVERS-$MOD_VERS deb
package with no Depends. I tested this with iscsitarget-dkms.

It should be possible to add a mkbmdeb (make binary-modules deb)
action to dkms which executes this command (possibly with KVERS as a
parameter, just like for the mkkmp target).
