I am about to fix that. Note that there was something going wrong, the real (updated) instructions on how to build realtime-lsm are in /usr/share/doc/realtime-lsm/README.Debian, the instructions form /usr/share/doc/realtime-lsm-source/README.Debian are outdated, therefore the confusing description.
Anyhow I will update the file (both actually, also /usr/share/doc/realtime-lsm-source/README.Debian) and add instructions for make-kpkg. Thanks for the info.
