[PATCH] builddeb: generate multi-arch friendly linux-libc-dev package

From: Cedric Hombourger
Date: Mon Jun 17 2019 - 02:20:40 EST


Debian-based distributions place libc header files in a machine
specific directory (/usr/include/<libc-machine>) instead of
/usr/include/asm to support installation of the linux-libc-dev
package from multiple architectures. Move headers installed by
"make headers_install" accordingly.
