Public bug reported:

Without this patch trying to cross-build ubuntu kernel source with:
sudo apt-get install gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi
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.
