The correct fix here would be the kernel should use $PKG_CONFIG (or
ideally, BUILD_PKGCONFIG or similar for host lookups) and then you can
override it with export PKGCONFIG=pkgconfig-native.

I see that some bits of the kernel already set PKG_CONFIG ?=
$(CROSS_COMPILE)pkg-config, but others directly use pkg-config.
