When building linux-headers package using deb-pkg, builddeb erroneously assume
current directory is the source tree. This is not true if building in another
directory, using make O=... deb-pkg.

This patch fix this problem.

hdrpackage and headerpackage are not intuitive names,

While touching them move the mkdir of the kernel_headers dir up
and fix it for paranoid umask.

Usefull if building for sparc64 userland, because the
sparc and sparc64 userlands use the same 64-bit kernel,
making it impossible to always select the correct userland
architecture for the resulting debian package.

Might also be usefull, if you want a i386 userland with a amd64 kernel.

Example usage:
	make KBUILD_DEBARCH=i386 deb-pkg

Instead of creating the debian package for the compiling userland,
create it for a userland matching the kernel thats being compiled.

This patch supports all Lenny release architectures,
and Linux-based architecture candidates for Squeeze.

If it can't find a proper Debian userspace it displays a warning,
and fallback to let deb-gencontrol use the host's userspace arch.

Eg. with this patch the following make command:

	make ARCH=i386 deb-pkg

will output an i386 Debian package instead of an amd64 one,
when run on an amd64 machine.

The Debian packaging scripts created by the deb-pkg target do not pass
on the standard Debian maintainer script parameters to hook scripts,
which means that those scripts cannot tell whether they are being called
during e.g. install vs. upgrade, or removal vs. purge of the package.

As there are several variantions in how hook scripts are called from
kernel packages, we pass the parameters in the environment variable
DEB_MAINT_PARAMS rather than as extra arguments.

Make the deb-pkg build target understand the "um" arch and set up the
package and directory structure to match a mainline-Debian style
user-mode-linux package.

This is primarily so that it stops matching, exactly, the naming
convention used by normal, non-UML kernels generated by this command.

Installing "linux-2.6.11" and "linux-2.6.11", where one is a UML kernel
doesn't do the right thing.  This fixes that.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
