James has rightly pointed out that this will be available under /boot,
right?

Well, the reason I asked for this was because I had the probably
erroneous conception that we would have patches applied to the kernel
that would not be committed to git. I have since reflected that John's
tree, for instance, already includes any the packaging-related and SAUCE
patches, so it's not immediately necessary.

However, thinking a bit further, it would be nice to have a reference to
both the final branch (which the package was generated from) and the
original, sans-packaging branch which the packaging branch added to.
However, does this separation exist for all hwpacks? Do Landing Teams
maintain separate packaging branches, or do you, John?
