Sorry, I sent my last mail to quickly.  Three things below:

The package is actually called "linux-upstream", right?

Please prefix this line with a '+' to allow make job-server delegation to
sub-make called via makepkg.  This will prevent the make warning

    make[3]: warning: jobserver unavailable: using -j1.  Add '+' to parent make rule.

Just a note: In Masahiro's current kbuild tree 'build-version' has been moved
to scripts/build-version.  But I don't know on which base this patch will
possibly be applied to.

I am not familiar enough with makepkg/PKGBUILD: Does it make sense to put
'set -e' here, as we (will) do in other kbuild scripts?  ('set -u' breaks
'makepkg'.)  Without 'set -e', shellcheck asks for error handling around 'cd'
commands.

This looks funny, I think I'd just use echo "$pkgbase" >"$modulesdir/pkgbase",
but this is probably just bike-shedding.

So, all in all it looks good to me, thanks!

With the jobserver-'+'-prefix added:
