Masahiro Yamada 05e96e96a3 kbuild: use git-archive for source package creation 
Commit 5c3d1d0abb ("kbuild: add a tool to list files ignored by git")
added a new tool, scripts/list-gitignored. My intention was to create
source packages without cleaning the source tree, without relying on git.

Linus strongly objected to it, and suggested using 'git archive' instead.
[1] [2] [3]

This commit goes in that direction - Remove scripts/list-gitignored.c
and rewrites Makefiles and scripts to use 'git archive' for building
Debian and RPM source packages. It also makes 'make perf-tar*-src-pkg'
use 'git archive' again.

Going forward, building source packages is only possible in a git-managed
tree. Building binary packages does not require git.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
