[PATCH iproute2-next] Makefile: use make -C to change directory

From: Andrea Claudi <hidden>
Date: 2019-06-12 18:35:20
Subsystem: kernel build + files below scripts/ (unless maintained elsewhere), the rest · Maintainers: Nathan Chancellor, Nicolas Schier, Linus Torvalds

make provides a handy -C option to change directory before reading
the makefiles or doing anything else.

Use that instead of the "cd dir && make && cd .." pattern, thus
simplifying sintax for some makefiles.
