[Xenomai-core] [PATCH] prepare-kernel: Use auto-generated temp directory for --outpatch

[Jan Kiszka]

Asking the user to provide a temp directory for --outpatch and not
cleaning it up after completion is error-prone. Instead, generate such a
directory automatically and also remove it again when done.
