[ Upstream commit c615665389 ]
The make deb-pkg target calls debian-orig which attempts to either
hard link the source .tar to the build-output location or copy the
source .tar to the build-output location. The test to determine
whether to ln or cp is incorrectly expanded by Make and consequently
always attempts to ln the source .tar. This fix corrects the escaping
of '$' so that the test is expanded by the shell rather than by Make
and appropriately selects between ln and cp.

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.
