Josh Triplett 4243afdb93 kbuild: builddeb: always make modules_install, to install modules.builtin*
Even for a non-modular kernel, the kernel builds modules.builtin and
modules.builtin.modinfo, with information about the built-in modules.
Tools such as initramfs-tools need these files to build a working
initramfs on some systems, such as those requiring firmware.

Now that `make modules_install` works even in non-modular kernels and
installs these files, unconditionally invoke it when building a Debian
package.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
