[REPOST, PATCH] builddeb: really include objtool binary in headers package

[REPOST, PATCH] builddeb: really include objtool binary in headers package

[Wilfried Klaebe]

On May 4th, Bjørn Mork provided patch
697bbc7b832048d3a679cd55caf2268a325efbe0 to include objtool binaries in
the headers package. However, that one only works if $srctree=$objtree,
because the objtool binaries are not written to the srctree, but
to the objtree.

<formletter>

This is not the correct way to submit patches for inclusion in the
stable kernel tree.  Please read Documentation/stable_kernel_rules.txt
for how to do this properly.

Ah, right - shows just how much I tested that :)

If you end up with a v2, then please add

  Fixes: 697bbc7b8320 ("builddeb: include objtool binary in headers package")

as well, so it's easier to automatically map your fix against the buggy
commit. I'll leave it to Michal and you to decide whether this is worth
a v2 or not...

Thanks for fixing this.
