The vermagic stuff was not for 2.4.x kernels but for 2.6.x. It may not
be required by the very latest Linux kernel versions. However kernels
around 2.6.15 required it.
I'm not willing to apply this patch to v4.2 so it must wait couple of
months until v4.3 is started.

Ok. Applied. However I didn't do the change that replaced "rm -f x;ln -s
y x" by "rm -sf". All operating systems still don't support "ln -f"
properly.
