Well... Yes, but this in the end is identical to build arch, as long as
the generated source package is not shared across build hosts.

But good point. We probably want to drop this patch, as I was looking
at the linux-signed-<arch> packages which are indeed architecture
specific. But the generic linux package is not (and the linux-kbuild is
part of the "linux" package, while the kernels and headers are part of
the "linux-signed-<arch>" package). As we don't do this split IMHO both
variants are fine, but dropping this patch is simpler.
