* Latest kernel sources included symbolic links that were broken and caused the
  tar command to fail.
* In certain circumstances broken symbolic links are valid and should be
  packaged up.
* However, any patch located in the "patches" directory should be dereference
* since the original file is located in the recipe's WORKDIR.
* Therefore, the sym link will be broken when accessed on a different computer.
* By using the dereference option with the cp command the patches directory can
  be dereferenced.
