Permit overlayfs mounts within user namespaces to allow utilisation of e.g.
unprivileged LXC overlay snapshots.
Except by the Ubuntu community [1], overlayfs mounts in user namespaces are
expected to be a security risk [2] and thus are not enabled on upstream
Linux kernels. For the non-Ubuntu users that have to stick to unprivileged
overlay-based LXCs, this meant to patch and compile the kernel manually.
Instead, adding the kernel tainting 'permit_mounts_in_userns' module
parameter allows a kind of a user-friendly way to enable the feature.
Testable with:
sudo modprobe overlay permit_mounts_in_userns=1
sudo sysctl -w kernel.unprivileged_userns_clone=1
mkdir -p lower upper work mnt
unshare --map-root-user --mount \
mount -t overlay none mnt \
-o lowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper,workdir=work

Split the rules in d/rules.real so that the [un]versioned_tools
knobs can be used to avoid building them.
This is necessary since the build-dependency were moved to be
conditional on those knobs, so the build fails when the
unversioned tools are set to disabled as libpci-dev is not
installed but the tools are built and fail due to it missing.

This reverts commit 542ffe7fe2.
All drivers built under drivers/net/ethernet are included already
and should not be explicitly listed.
Move the bug closure to the previous log line.

The default compression for the Debian tarball has been xz since dpkg
1.16.5 (pre-wheezy). lintian now warns about setting the compression
option, even though we don't change the default.
