[PATCH] kbuild: fix header installation under fakechroot environment

From: Richard Genoud
Date: Thu Jun 15 2017 - 04:36:47 EST


Since commit fcc8487d477a ("uapi: export all headers under uapi
directories") fakechroot make bindeb-pkg fails, mismatching files for
directories:
touch: cannot touch 'usr/include/video/uvesafb.h/.install': Not a
directory

This due to a bug in fakechroot:
when using the function $(wildcard $(srcdir)/*/.) in a makefile, under a
fakechroot environment, not only directories but also files are
returned.

To circumvent that, we are using the functions:
$(sort $(dir $(wildcard $(srcdir)/*/))))

And thanks to Yamada Masahiro who figured out the right
filter-out/patsubst order !
