Subject: [PATCH] Bug in scripts/package/mkspec?

Hi all,

I've been building RPMs for the Linux kernel for a while now and only
recently noticed that the RPM Release field is always set to 1.
After a bit of searching I found the offending line in
scripts/package/mkspec. Here is a patch that worked for me, but
perhaps this
could be fixed in better way by someone knowledgeable of the kernel
build process...:

 # rpm -q will agree
