Subject: [PATCH 6/6] kbuild: use git-archive for source package creation

This patch cause build time a bit longer.
I use "time make targz-pkg -i -j8" build kernel, this patch will first create *.tar file, then create *.tar.gz file, build time a bit longer.

I don't like *.tar file, i will delete *.tar file when every time build kernel, i need *.tar.gz file, if one file is i needn't, i will delete it.
linux-6.3.0-rc5-android-x86_64+-x86.tar.gz file is i need, linux-6.3.0-rc5-android-x86_64+-x86.tar is i needn't.
