It is widely known that one can build a kernel without a .config in the
source tree by setting KCONFIG_CONFIG equal to the actual configuration
file path.
When making a *-pkg target, make(1) prepares a source tarball and tries
to pack `.config' in there regardless of the value of KCONFIG_CONFIG,
failing spectacularly if .config is absent and packing the wrong config
if it exists.
Let's fix that by including whatever KCONFIG_CONFIG points to in the
archive under the traditional name `.config'.
We have to pass --absolute-names to tar, since it seems to trim the
paths of archive members first and only then consider --transform, which
breaks KCONFIG_CONFIG=../../some.config, as well as absolute paths.

2.20.1
* We'd like to make dpkg-source ignore certain filepath patterns while
producing the .diff.gz as part of a Debian source package.
The relationship between dpkg-source's -i and --extend-diff-ignore
options is quite complicated[1]. It's thus not very convenient to
specify file path patterns to ignore on dpkg-buildpackage's command
line (they do not end up in the source package as well), so we turn
`-i.git' into a record in debian/source/options.
Besides, the dot in `-i.git' is a metacharacter and matches a tad
too much.
* In cases where a .config exists in the source tree, but the .config
in the source tarball is provided by wherever KCONFIG_CONFIG pointed
to, dpkg-source would attempt to replace the second, proper one with
the first one, which is undesirable and nullifies the effort made
to put the proper config in the source tarball.
To prevent this, force dpkg-source to ignore /^[.]config$/ as well.
This makes it possible to build working Debian source packages with a
redefined KCONFIG_CONFIG:
- that file is put in the source tarball at its traditional place,
and the diff.gz does not dare touch it;
- when the source package is rebuilt, debian/rules initiates the build
process with the desired config already in the standard location.

Thus it would be more foolproof to explicitly use 1.0 (as we always
did) than to rely on dpkg-source's defaults.
* In a similar vein, debian/rules is not made executable by mkdebian,
and dpkg-source warns about that but still silently fixes the file.
Let's be explicit once again.

One way to avoid --absolute-names here is to do the dance below:

I'm not sure if this is strictly better.

rpm-pkg will work in a strange way.
(probably snap-pkg too).
rpm package is compiled in $(HOME)/rpmbuild/BUILD.
The source package will contain the .config in the standard location,
but KCONFIG_CONFIG will point to a different path.
Rather, I'd like to stop the build.
quiet_cmd_src_tar = TAR $(2).tar.gz
cmd_src_tar = \
if test "$(objtree)" != "$(srctree)"; then \
echo >&2; \
echo >&2 " ERROR:"; \
echo >&2 " Building source tarball is not possible outside the"; \
echo >&2 " kernel source tree. Don't set KBUILD_OUTPUT, or use the"; \
echo >&2 " binrpm-pkg or bindeb-pkg target instead."; \
echo >&2; \
false; \
fi ; \
if test "$(KCONFIG_CONFIG)" != .config; then \
echo >&2; \
echo >&2 " ERROR:"; \
echo >&2 " Please do not override KCONFIG_CONFIG"; \
echo >&2 " for source package build"; \
echo >&2; \
false; \
fi ; \
$(srctree)/scripts/setlocalversion --save-scmversion; \
tar -cz $(RCS_TAR_IGNORE) -f $(2).tar.gz \
--transform 's:^:$(2)/:S' $(TAR_CONTENT) $(3); \
rm -f $(objtree)/.scmversion
I am included to do the opposite;
replace KCONFIG_CONFIG with the hard-coded .config
KCONFIG_CONFIG does not work.
It is half-baked at best.
