runstrip() in package.bbclass fails when run against a kernel module

runstrip() in package.bbclass fails when run against a kernel module,
because it tries to do a bitwise & with a 'None' argument. This throws:
TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for &: 'NoneType' and 'int'.

(This bug triggers, for example, when building ti-linuxutils from
meta-ti (v2012.05-yocto1.2 tag) against Denzil.)

Patch attached.

Subject: [PATCH] package.bbclass: fix stripping for kernel modules

runstrip(path, elftype, d) does bitwise & on the elftype parameter, so it has
to be passed an integer. Passing None fails with: TypeError: unsupported
operand type(s) for &: 'NoneType' and 'int'.
