For a while now I've been missing a deb target in kbuild, especially
since there is a simple rpm target. While Debian does have a tool
to create kernel packages (make-kpkg from the kernel-package package)
I felt there was a need for a simpler method build into kbuild.
The patch is imperfect and could use some changed from someone who is
more familiar with kbuild, but It Works For Me(tm). I would appreciate
any feedback people have on it (I'm not subscribed to kbuild-devel,
so please cc me on any replies).
Wichert.
