Partially revert the earlier commit which limited SCST_KVER to a semantic
version only. Restore usage of the full kernel version string for improved
clarity in build metadata.
Fixes: ac1e7f82b7 ("scst: Fix SCST_KVER to use semantic version only")
Previously, SCST_KVER included the full kernel release string. This patch
limits it to the semantic version (e.g. "6.9.0") for cleaner and more
consistent output in dmesg, sysfs, and modinfo.
Fixes: 6782003bfc ("scst: Extend build metadata passed to the SCST")
Previously, only the revision string was passed from the build system
into the SCST kernel module. This patch extends that by passing additional
build metadata: kernel version, build date, Git commit hash, build number,
and architecture type.
These values are now consistently exposed in the kernel log, sysfs,
and via modinfo, providing a unified and reliable way to identify the
exact build in use.
Sync the `help` target with the actual Makefile rules:
- Include missing targets (tags, cov-build, docs, scstadm, scstadm-rpm)
- Reorder and align target groups
- Update `.PHONY` list
1. Correct a typo, changing `make release` to `make 2release`.
2. Add information about package-related targets to the help section.
3. Remove `dev_handler` directory during the uninstall process.
4. Eliminate the non-existent `tgt` target from the PHONY targets.
5. Introduce SCST_MOD_DIR and SCST_DH_MOD_DIR as helper variables.
For convenience, there is a lack of opportunity to build
the SCST dkms and scstadmin packages in a one command.
Introduce the 'make rpm-dkms' command that in similar way to 'make rpm'
builds SCST dkms rpm packages and then builds scstadmin rpm packages.
Only regenerate the source code archives if one of the included source files

By default it uses the currently running kernel, which is not necessary
the kernel the package was built for. Fix this by generating the path on
package creation stage.

This script is used in the non-dkms scst package. The purpose of package
is to determine kernel location at compile-time, as opposed to the
package installation time. However, calling `uname -r` in package
installation time violates that idea because it would get some random
kernel that was running on the machine. This problem is particularly
seen in containers, because in those `uname` shows the kernel running on
the host, rather than the one running inside container.
Fix this by determining the kernel location in `preinst` script at
compile time as well.

The debuild clears up the environment, thus the essential SCST variables
KVER and KDIR are cleared out. This patch fixes it.
Note: technically, `debild` supports `--preserve-env` option. But in
reality making use of it makes no difference, variables still do not
appear. Work around it by using DEB_foo_SET from `man dpkg-buildflags`

Use a two digit revision number instead of a single digit revision number to
fix a lintian warning. Exclude .gitignore files from the source archive.
Copy the debhelper major version number into debian/compat instead of
hardcoding the compatibility level because the highest compatibility level
supported by Ubuntu 16.04 is 9 and because compatibility level 9 is considered
deprecated by Ubuntu 20.04.

Since the driver in the qla2x00t-32gbit directory supersedes the driver from
the QLogic git tree, remove all references to the latter.

Move the build_mode file from the top level into the scst directory. Write
build mode defines into scst/include/build_mode.h and include that file
directly or indirectly in all source files that depend on these #defines.
This approach has the advantage that "make clean" does no longer has to
be run when switching between build modes because the kernel build system
recognizes build_mode.h as a dependency and triggers a rebuild of all
source files that directly or indirectly include the build_mode.h header
file.

Since RHEL 5 and kernel versions before 2.6.26 rely on procfs support,
this patch removes support for RHEL 5.x and also for kernel versions
before 2.6.26.
