There is, but it's not supported, and if you try it and it screws up your
system, or just doesn't work, then you're expected to be able to fix it
yourself without coming asking for help :-)
'make all' in /usr/src is a lot faster than 'make world' since it
deliberately doesn't do any dependency building or ordering, etc. But
listen to me when I tell you not to report errors if you use this - you
are on your own!
