[PATCH] kbuild, deb-pkg: set host machine after dpkg-gencontrol

[Robert <robert@greenroomsoftware.com>]

This is my first patch, so hopefully I've done it correctly.  Details follow.

Regards,
Robert Gordon


scripts/package/builddeb script was setting the host machine
$arch in the KERNEL/debian/control prior to an invocation of
dpkg-gencontrol.  The patch modifies the script to guarantee the correct
debian arch for the target is written to the control file instead.
