  kbuild: deb-pkg: use debian/<package> for tmpdir (2024-01-10 20:39:47 +0900)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Kbuild updates for v6.8

 - Make Kconfig parse the input .config more precisely

 - Support W=c and W=e options for Kconfig

 - Set Kconfig int/hex symbols to zero if the 'default' property is
   missing

 - Add .editorconfig

 - Add scripts/git.orderFile

 - Add a script to detect backward-incompatible changes in UAPI headers

 - Resolve the symlink passed to O= option properly

 - Use the user-supplied mtime for all files in the builtin initramfs,
   which provides better reproducible builds

 - Fix the direct execution of debian/rules for Debian package builds

 - Use build ID instead of the .gnu_debuglink section for the Debian dbg
   package
