kbuild: make single target builds even faster

commit b1fbfcb4a20949df08dd995927cdc5ad220c128d upstream.

Commit 2dffd23f81a3 ("kbuild: make single target builds much faster")
made the situation much better.

To improve it even more, apply the similar idea to the top Makefile.
Trim unrelated directories from build-dirs.

The single build code must be moved above the 'descend' target.
