Silence a remaining annoying (or worse, irritating - "is my entire patched tree
broken now!?") bashism-related message that occurs when /bin/sh is configured
to instead deploy dash, a POSIX-compliant shell, as is the pretty much
standard case on e.g. Debian.
Current kernel version is 2.6.38 ( Flesh-Eating Bats with Fangs)

scripts/patch-kernel script can't patch a tree, say, from 2.6.25 to
2.6.26.1, because of a wrong comparison in context of patching 2.6.x base.
Fix it.

Make the patch-kernel shell script sufficiently compatible with POSIX
shells, i.e., remove bashisms from scripts/patch-kernel.
This means that it now also works on dash 0.5.3-5
and still works on bash 3.1dfsg-8.
Full changelog:
- replaced non-standard "==" by standard "="
- replaced non-standard "source" statement by POSIX "dot" command
- use leading ./ on mktemp filename to force the tempfile to a local
directory, so that the search path is not used
- replace bash syntax to remove leading dot by similar POSIX syntax
- added missing (optional/not required) $ signs to shell variable names

This patch removes all references to the bouncing address
rddunlap@osdl.org and one dead web page from the kernel.

Add better support for (non-incremental) 2.6.x.y patches; If an ending
version number if not specified, the script automatically increments the
SUBLEVEL (x in 2.6.x.y) until no more patch files are found; however,
EXTRAVERSION (y in 2.6.x.y) is never automatically incremented but must be
specified fully.
patch-kernel does not normally support reverse patching, but does so when
applying EXTRAVERSION (x.y) patches, so that moving from 2.6.11.y to
2.6.11.z is easy and handled by the script (reverse 2.6.11.y and apply
2.6.11.z).

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
