Replace the dist variable by git ls-files.

It is not about building a tarball, it is about tracking files.
Currently you are abusing make to keep track of your files.
git does this already for you.
Tracking files manually in the Makefile is also error prone.
doc/mpc85xx.txt and arch/i386/timer.c have already been forgotten...
If I'm not mistaken kexec-tools uses git as SCM, so you'll need
git anyways to checkout the source and work with it.
I think what simon meant is that by using current ways, we can build a
tarball without git installed. By using your ways, if we want to build
a tarball, git is a must. So it is unnecessary to add git as a requirement
for there may be some condtions that we want to build a clean tarball in a
git-not-installed system.
But git is already a requirement to checkout the source from the git repo.
Or I'm mistaken?
