Subject: [PATCH 1/3] Revert "kbuild: give the SUBLEVEL more room in KERNEL_VERSION"

This reverts commit 537896fabed11f8d9788886d1aacdb977213c7b3.

This turns out to be a bad idea: userspace has coded the structure of
KERNEL_VERSION on it's own and assumes the 2-1-1 byte split, making it
userspace ABI we can't break.

The reverted patch didn't make it past linux-next, so no userspace was
hurt in the process.
