When running inside a QEMU microvm with the source directory shared
via 9pfs, the kernel build process fails
> Error: Could not mmap file: vmlinux
Thus, we need to run the build in a path on a local filesystem. To
support this, the Makefile now supports an `O` option, and all the build
scripts have been adjusted to make use of it as needed.
Since building in a local filesystem would ultimately discard the final
artifacts when the VM terminates, we need yet a different location for
the files we want to keep. The `IMAGESDIR` option can be used to
specify this path. This path can be on a shared filesystem, thus
saving the artifacts outside the microvm.
When running inside a rootless Podman container on a SELinux-enabled
host, the `patch` command fails because it cannot copy SELinux labels
from the original file to the patched file. This only happens patching
files that are located in a bind mount.
