When BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_AS_KERNEL=y, we expect that the Linux kernel
headers code will be exactly the same as the Linux kernel code
itself. The code currently takes into account the patches defined by
BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_PATCH, but not the kernel patches that are stored in
linux's BR2_GLOBAL_PATCH_DIR.
So for example, the current qemu_riscv32_virt_defconfig has:
BR2_GLOBAL_PATCH_DIR="board/qemu/riscv32-virt/patches/"
With:
board/qemu/riscv32-virt/patches/
└── linux
└── 0001-Revert-riscv-Use-latest-system-call-ABI.patch
This patch gets properly applied when the Linux kernel is built, but
not when the linux-headers package is built.
This commit fixes that by making sure patches stored in the "linux"
BR2_GLOBAL_PATCH_DIR subdirectory are taken into account.
