Add note about building for something other than a PC, e.g. a RasPi

Browse Source 
The Makefile is configured by settings on top, not by trying to completely determine the target from the kernel tree or other things, and some other options.  For a normal USB adapter on a PC, just type "make", for anything else, it needs the options changed.  The added section explains it.

The Makefile is preconfigured to handle most x86/PC versions. If you are compiling for something other than an intel x86 architecture, you need to first select the platform, e.g. for the Raspberry Pi, you need to set the I386 to n and the ARM_RPI to y:
```sh
...
CONFIG_PLATFORM_I386_PC = n
...
CONFIG_PLATFORM_ARM_RPI = y
```
There are many other platforms supported and some other advanced options, e.g. PCI instead of USB, but most won't be needed.
