* Drop redundant gitignore.patch from linux-tools
* Rename linux-tools' debian/templates/control.main.in to
debian/templates/control.tools.in
* Combine changelogs, putting all entries for each upstream release
cycle in chronological order
* Combine rules and gencontrol.py code
By passing both -C and -f options to make, we can separate makefiles
from the output directory without adding prefixes to all targets.
We can also reduce the 'clean' commands to little more than 'rm -rf'.
A parallel 'debian/rules build' will now invoke 'debian/rules.real
build' twice in parallel, which is disastrous.
- Add and use proper build-arch and build-indep targets in
debian/rules.gen and debian/rules.real
- Assign a separate temporary directory to each target in
debian/rules.real. Add the directories to .gitignore and
the clean rule.
- Pull installation of the lockdep wrapper (which is indep)
up into debian/rules.real so that we don't end up building
liblockdep twice in parallel.
Like many other of our binary packages, dh_clean can miss this after a
version bump. Not sure why it wasn't already inclued.

Use the same template syntax and implementation for maintainer
scripts, translations, etc. as we do for the control files. Define
the image-stem and initramfs variables to replace the old K and I
variables.
After this, debian/linux-* and debian/po/*.po are generated files (at
source preparation time) and should be ignored in svn.
Use debhelper to install the generated files at build time. This also
results in a redundant dependency on debconf (which we already have in
Pre-Depends), but this seems harmless.

Derived packages (e.g. for extra featuresets) may be maintained using
yet another patch series (touching the debian directory). This will
require an additional status directory, specified by setting QUILT_PC.
Override this when we invoke quilt to apply the main and featureset
patch series. (Thanks to Yves-Alexis Perez.)

Change patch.apply.in to apply a single patch series without
filtering. Move series/base to series-all and series/base-extra to
series-rt and series-none (the latter empty).
Remove the redundant status file support from patch.apply.in, and
convert it into a static file rather than a template.
Remove the redundant patch series list support from patches.py.

We have not used per-architecture patches for many years. This is a
step toward using a more standard patch system.

Use kernel-wedge in gencontrol.py and during the build process to
generate the udeb packages required by debian-installer.
Add the kernel-wedge configuration files from all the current
linux-kernel-di-$arch-2.6 packages.
