Subject: [PATCH 5b/5] deb-pkg: allow alternative hook scripts directory in .deb packages
Hook scripts in the default directory /etc/kernel are also executed by
official Debian kernel packages as well as kernel packages created using
make-kpkg. Allow to specify the base hook scripts directory in the kernel
configuration (DEB_HOOKDIRS_PATH).
