pacman is the package manager used by Arch Linux and its derivates.
Creating native packages from the kernel tree has multiple advantages:
* The package triggers the correct hooks for initramfs generation and
bootloader configuration
* Uninstallation is complete and also invokes the relevant hooks
* New UAPI headers can be installed without any manual bookkeeping
The PKGBUILD file is a simplified version of the one used for the
downstream Arch Linux "linux" package.
Extra steps that should not be necessary for a development kernel have
been removed and an UAPI header package has been added.
