setlocalversion script was testing the presence of .git directory in order to find out
if git is used as SCM to track the current kernel project. However in some cases, .git
is not a directory but can be a file: when the kernel is a git submodule part of a git
super project for example.

This patch just fixes this by using 'git rev-parse --show-cdup' to check that the
current directory is the kernel git topdir. This has the advantage to not test and rely
on git internal infrastructure directly.
