Bug Description
Without this patch trying to cross-build ubuntu kernel source with:
sudo apt-get install gcc-arm-
dpkg-buildpackage -aarmel
would fail when building perf due to incorrect "make $(CROSS_COMPILE)" line. Unfortunately that is not enough, as binutils-dev is not multiarch ready atm.
In order to cross-compile kernel in precise, building tools need to be disabled (until binutils-dev is converted to multiarch). The attached patch does that, and while at it replaces the incorrect "make $(CROSS_COMPILE)" stanzas with $(kmake).
Please consider for you next precise upload so that precise kernels packages can be cross-compiled without hacking.
