One of kernel patches merged last weekend seems to be causing all /usr/src/kernel
files to be installed in sysroot without sstate knowledge (and possibly
missing when kernel is reused from sstate)

sstate-find-cruft.sh from last world build now reports:

ERROR: 52961 issues were found.
ERROR: Following files are installed in sysroot, but not tracked by
sstate:
qemuarm/usr/src/kernel/.git
qemuarm/usr/src/kernel/.git/HEAD
...
qemuarm/usr/src/kernel/.meta
qemuarm/usr/src/kernel/.meta/cfg
qemuarm/usr/src/kernel/.meta/cfg/kernel-cache
qemuarm/usr/src/kernel/.meta/cfg/kernel-cache/00-README\
...
qemuarm/usr/src/kernel/.scmversion
qemuarm/usr/src/kernel/COPYING
qemuarm/usr/src/kernel/CREDITS
