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.

The kernel config files used to be uploaded to
http://kernel.alioth.debian.org/config/ or elsewhere, and people
occasionally request them, but we have no infrastructure to
automatically do that and I rarely remember to do it. These are
presumably wanted as a starting point by people building custom
packages who don't want to download the linux-image package, so
add them to the linux-source-$UPSTREAMVERSION package.
We can already generate all the config files without any
cross-toolchain using the 'setup' target in rules.gen, except that the
'make prepare' command in rules.real will fail. This command is
unnecessary as 'prepare' is a dependency of any build target we use
in our 'build-arch' rule, so remove it.

Drop most patches as they're already upstream in 3.8 or early.
Refresh some others for 3.8. In particular, remove use of __devinit from
debian/radeon-firmware-is-required-for-drm-and-kms-on-r600-onward.patch
as this macro is no longer defined or needed.

Most of the patches added to sid are already in 3.5 and could be dropped.
Some others needed to be re-generated without the backporting changes.
Ignore the rt changes as there is no rt featureset for 3.5.

There is not enough space for both timestamp and package version, so
replace the timestamp by setting KBUILD_BUILD_TIMESTAMP.
We now need to get the distribution name in debian/rules.real, but
we already have DISTRIBUTION as the suite name so use DISTRIBUTOR for
the distribution name (!).
The utsname version string also appears in /proc/version and the init
banner, so don't bother including it again explicitly. This means we
no longer need to patch init/version.c and scripts/mkcompile_h at all.
Instead, split maintainer at the '@' and set KBUILD_BUILD_USER and
KBUILD_BUILD_HOST accordingly.
Carry on generating <generated/package.h>, but drop the parentheses
from LINUX_PACKAGE_ID now that it's not used in init/version.c.
Drop support for version.$DISTRIBUTION files. Any derived
distribution can set KBUILD_BUILD_* in the same way we are doing.

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.)

Remove the generic version now that these architectures have there own spcific
version. Fixes:
debian/rules.real:384: warning: overriding commands for target `install-image_armel_none_kirkwood_plain_image'
debian/rules.real:379: warning: ignoring old commands for target `install-image_armel_none_kirkwood_plain_image'

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

I already changed the 'real' module installation step to avoid
creating and then removing an unknown set of module index files, using
a script as a replacement for depmod. However, we use modules_install
a second time when building debug packages. Change that similarly, and
remove the build-dependency.
