$KBUILD_BUILD_TIMESTAMP is used in two places:
1. By mkcompile_h, to generate both the utsname::version string
2. By gen_initramfs_list.sh, to set the timestamps for the built-in initramfs
As we want utsname::version to contain the package version and not an
RFC822 timestamp, the current value doesn't work for (2).
Change mkcompile_h to prefer $KBUILD_BUILD_VERSION_TIMESTAMP over
$KBUILD_BUILD_TIMESTAMP, and set both variables in debian/rules.real.

Unfortunately it is not sufficient to provide virtual packages
that exactly match the ABI name. For example, 'reportbug kernel'
doesn't find the virtual package, and neither do dpkg commands
such as 'dpkg -l linux-image-$(uname -r)'.

For arch-independent packages we don't need these, and the invocations
of dpkg-architecture with empty $(ARCH) result in error messages.

Currently we set KW_CHECK_NONFATAL=y when building for experimental or
an unreleased package. In theory people would be checking for
kernel-wedge errors in the build logs. In practice this meant we
didn't see them until they appear in unstable where they are fatal.

The bulk of the
install-image_$(ARCH)_$(FEATURESET)_$(FLAVOUR)_plain_image rule is
actually Device Tree stuff, so rename it accordingly and move
installation of the image (now a single generic command) up to the
install-image_$(ARCH)_$(FEATURESET)_$(FLAVOUR)_plain rule.

The filename of the kernel image to be installed, and the stem of the
installed name, varies between architectures, so we define several
different rules to install it for different sets of architectures.
However the basic fact that we need to install this file in /boot does
not.
We also duplicate this name information in gencontrol.py and in
debian/config/{armel,armhf,sh4}/defines (used by buildcheck.py).
To address this:
* Define [image]install-stem and [build]image-file for each architecture
* Copy these settings to make-flags in gencontrol.py
* Copy [image]install-stem to the image-stem template variable in
gencontrol.py
* Replace the per-architecture rules with a single rule using those
make-flags
The per-architecture rules for ARM and PowerPC also installed DTB
and DTS files, respectively. Include those commands in the single
rule with appropriate conditions around them.

Use the same template syntax and implementation for maintainer
scripts, translations, etc. as we do for the control files. Define
the image-stem and initramfs variables to replace the old K and I
variables.
After this, debian/linux-* and debian/po/*.po are generated files (at
source preparation time) and should be ignored in svn.
Use debhelper to install the generated files at build time. This also
results in a redundant dependency on debconf (which we already have in
Pre-Depends), but this seems harmless.

The kernel config files used to be uploaded to
http://kernel.alioth.debian.org/config/ or elsewhere, and people
occasionally request them, but we have no infrastructure to
automatically do that and I rarely remember to do it. These are
presumably wanted as a starting point by people building custom
packages who don't want to download the linux-image package, so
add them to the linux-source-$UPSTREAMVERSION package.
We can already generate all the config files without any
cross-toolchain using the 'setup' target in rules.gen, except that the
'make prepare' command in rules.real will fail. This command is
unnecessary as 'prepare' is a dependency of any build target we use
in our 'build-arch' rule, so remove it.

Drop most patches as they're already upstream in 3.8 or early.
Refresh some others for 3.8. In particular, remove use of __devinit from
debian/radeon-firmware-is-required-for-drm-and-kms-on-r600-onward.patch
as this macro is no longer defined or needed.
svn path=/dists/trunk/linux/; revision=19856
Most of the patches added to sid are already in 3.5 and could be dropped.
Some others needed to be re-generated without the backporting changes.
Ignore the rt changes as there is no rt featureset for 3.5.
svn path=/dists/trunk/linux/; revision=19387
There is not enough space for both timestamp and package version, so
replace the timestamp by setting KBUILD_BUILD_TIMESTAMP.
We now need to get the distribution name in debian/rules.real, but
we already have DISTRIBUTION as the suite name so use DISTRIBUTOR for
the distribution name (!).
The utsname version string also appears in /proc/version and the init
banner, so don't bother including it again explicitly. This means we
no longer need to patch init/version.c and scripts/mkcompile_h at all.
Instead, split maintainer at the '@' and set KBUILD_BUILD_USER and
KBUILD_BUILD_HOST accordingly.
Carry on generating <generated/package.h>, but drop the parentheses
from LINUX_PACKAGE_ID now that it's not used in init/version.c.
Drop support for version.$DISTRIBUTION files. Any derived
distribution can set KBUILD_BUILD_* in the same way we are doing.

Derived packages (e.g. for extra featuresets) may be maintained using
yet another patch series (touching the debian directory). This will
require an additional status directory, specified by setting QUILT_PC.
Override this when we invoke quilt to apply the main and featureset
patch series. (Thanks to Yves-Alexis Perez.)

Extract the current usbip version from its config.h file rather than
repeating it in rules.real where we might forget to update it.
Pass VERSION_DEBIAN into rules.real from rules.gen rather than
invoking dpkg-parsechangelog again.

Do not build a shared library package; the API and ABI have changed
from libusbip0 but there has been no upstream soversion change.

Remove the generic version now that these architectures have there own spcific
version. Fixes:
debian/rules.real:384: warning: overriding commands for target `install-image_armel_none_kirkwood_plain_image'

We have not used per-architecture patches for many years. This is a
step toward using a more standard patch system.

I already changed the 'real' module installation step to avoid
creating and then removing an unknown set of module index files, using
a script as a replacement for depmod. However, we use modules_install
a second time when building debug packages. Change that similarly, and
remove the build-dependency.
svn path=/dists/trunk/linux-2.6/; revision=18871
We want to avoid shipping any files generated by depmod (which should
be generated in the postinst) and the 'build' and 'source' symlinks
(which should be installed by the linux-headers package). Since
depmod has generated more and more files over time, we have been
removing all unexpected files under /lib/modules/<kernel-version>,
accidentally including modules.builtin which is *not* generated by
depmod.
Try to solve the problem generally by substituting a dummy depmod
command and then just removing the 'build' and 'source' symlinks.

The default (arch-independent) configuration was previously provided
by the kernel-wedge package, but we want to be able to update it
without changing that in future. Copy the configuration files from
kernel-wedge 2.82 (except loop-aes-modules which is now unused).
Depend on kernel-wedge 2.83, which adds this feature.
