Unforunately the dracut module doesn't work if installed in
/usr/local/lib/dracut. It must always be installed in
/usr/lib/dracut regardless of the install prefix.
kpatch-build is outgrowing the kpatch script and probably is a better
fit as its own utility instead of being wrapped by kpatch. Install
kpatch-build into /usr/local/bin, remove the kpatch wrapper around it,
and update the README accordingly.
Build and install the kpatch core module with make and make install,
rather than building it every time with kpatch build.
The only downside to this approach is that the user has to make and make
install kpatch every time they get a new kernel. But this is only
temporary, until the kpatch module is delivered in an RPM.
- setup the makefiles to support "make" and "make install", which builds
the kpatch-build tools and installs everything in /usr/local.
- update kpatch-build to support new paths
- add "kpatch build" wrapper around kpatch-build
