I have been locally building the kernel modules package to distribute to ~dozen
computers.  I have so far only been able to build the -unsigned packages,
mostly because I have not gotten around to caring about building the signed images.

The changes here will certainly affect my build scripts for the kernel packages,
but I do think there should be a relatively simple pathway available for people
to build a new/different kernel using the debian packaging that integrates
nicely with the rest of Debian.

Maybe I just need to build the signed packages (Is that difficult? My
understanding that a second build process needs to happen with my own signing
key that would also need to be deployed to all of my machines to allow for
secure boot to be enabled.)  If that process is too difficult to describe
simply, maybe I'm asking to please not remove the ability to actually use the
unsigned images.

Thanks,
Antonio
