[PATCH v4 09/12] livepatch/klp-build: Fix inconsistent kernel version

[Joe Lawrence <joe.lawrence@redhat.com>]

From: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@kernel.org>

If .config hasn't been synced with auto.conf, any recent changes to
CONFIG_LOCALVERSION* may not get reflected in the kernel version name.

Use "make syncconfig" to force them to sync, and "make -s kernelrelease"
to get the version instead of having to construct it manually.

Fixes: 24ebfcd65a87 ("livepatch/klp-build: Introduce klp-build script for generating livepatch modules")
Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/20260217160645.3434685-10-joe.lawrence@redhat.com
Reported-by: Joe Lawrence <joe.lawrence@redhat.com>

Signed-off-by: Joe Lawrence <joe.lawrence@redhat.com> [add -s to make kernelrelease]
