The blank line causes execve() to fail:

  # strace ./postinst
  execve("./postinst", ...) = -1 ENOEXEC (Exec format error)
  strace: exec: Exec format error
  +++ exited with 1 +++

However running the scripts via shell does work (at least with bash)
because the shell attempts to execute the file as a shell script when
execve() fails.

Set -e to make these scripts fail on the first error.

Set -u because these scripts are invoked by Makefile, and do not work
properly without necessary variables defined.

I tweaked mkdebian to cope with optional environment variables.

Remove the explicit "test -n ..." from install-extmod-build.

Both options are described in POSIX. [1]

'make deb-pkg' builds build-arch in parallel, but binary-arch serially.

Given that all binary packages are independent of one another, they can
be built in parallel.

I am uncertain whether debian/files is robust against a race condition.
Just in case, make dh_gencontrol (dpkg-gencontrol) output to separate
debian/*.files, which are then concatenated into debian/files.

Strictly speaking, 'make headers' should be a part of build-arch
instead of binary-arch.

'make headers' constructs ready-to-copy UAPI headers in the kernel
directory.

<title>kbuild: deb-pkg: use build ID instead of debug link for dbg package</title>

There are two ways of managing separate debug info files:

 [1] The executable contains the .gnu_debuglink section, which specifies
     the name and the CRC of the separate debug info file.

 [2] The executable contains a build ID, and the corresponding debug info
     file is placed in the .build-id directory.

We could do both, but the former, which 'make deb-pkg' currently does,
results in complicated installation steps because we need to manually
strip the debug sections, create debug links, and re-sign the modules.
Besides, it is not working with module compression.

This commit abandons the approach [1], and instead opts for [2].

Debian kernel commit de26137e2a9f ("Drop not needed extra step to add
debug links") also stopped adding debug links.

Commit 36862e14e316 ("kbuild: deb-pkg: use dh_listpackages to know
enabled packages") started to require the debhelper tool suite.

Use more dh_* commands in create_package():

 - dh_installdocs to install copyright
 - dh_installchangelogs to install changelog
 - dh_compress to compress changelog
 - dh_fixperms to replace the raw chmod command
 - dh_gencontrol to replace the raw dpkg-gencontrol command
 - dh_md5sums to record the md5sum of included files
 - dh_builddeb to replace the raw dpkg-deb command

Set DEB_RULES_REQUIRES_ROOT to 'no' in case debian/rules is executed
directly.

Since commit 491b146d4c13 ("kbuild: builddeb: Eliminate debian/arch
use"), direct execution of debian/rules results in the following error:

  dpkg-architecture: error: unknown option 'DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH'

The current code:

  dpkg-architecture -a$DEB_HOST_ARCH -qDEB_HOST_MULTIARCH

... does not look sensible because:

 - For this code to work correctly, DEB_HOST_ARCH must be pre-defined,
   which is true when the packages are built via dpkg-buildpackage.
   In this case, DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH is also likely defined, hence there
   is no need to query DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH in the first place.

 - If DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH is undefined, DEB_HOST_ARCH is likely undefined
   too. So, you cannot query DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH in this way. This is
   mostly the case where debian/rules is directly executed.

When debian/rules is directly executed, querying DEB_HOST_MUCHARCH is
not enough because we need to know DEB_{BUILD,HOST}_GNU_TYPE as well.

All DEB_* variables are defined when the package build is initiated by
dpkg-buildpackage, but otherwise, let's call dpkg-architecture to set
all DEB_* environment variables.

This requires dpkg 1.20.6 or newer because --print-format option
was added in dpkg commit 7c54fa2b232e ("dpkg-architecture: Add a
--print-format option").
