Ignore dkms failure in the prerm of openafs-modules-dkms
* Ignore failures to remove an existing DKMS tree in the prerm of the
openafs-modules-dkms package. In the possible cases where the tree
may not be present to be removed, failing package removal doesn't
make sense. (Further addresses LP #368471.)

Build and install the new DocBook manuals
Install generated PDF and HTML from the new DocBook manuals. Install
only ka2heim.txt from the txt directory; the other things in there aren't
horribly useful. Stop installing the old HTML documentation. Add the
required additional configure options for the DocBook documentation build.
* Apply upstream CVS deltas:
- STABLE14-memcache-write-on-laststore-20090512: write back dirty
pages on last store with memcache to avoid losing changes.

when the real and effective credentials of a process differ to avoid
running afoul of checks in newer Linux kernels that cause oops.

Enable DKMS support
* Provide an openafs-modules-dkms package that uses DKMS to dynamically
build kernel modules for the local kernel and document this option in
README.modules. This is an alternative to installing
openafs-modules-source and building kernel modules for each new kernel
with module-assistant or make-kpkg. (Closes: #168852, #525131)
(LP: #52786, #364426, #369875)
* Have openafs-client recommend at least the current source version of
openafs-modules-source or openafs-modules-dkms instead of any old
version. While the API probably hasn't changed, it's best practice to
keep a relatively close match between the userspace andn the kernel
module version. (LP: #369875)
For Debian, we don't ship the shared libraries due to concerns over the
stability of the interface. It's useful, however, to have a PIC library
for consumers of libopenafs-dev who want to link AFS code into shared
libraries. Generate static PIC versions of the two libraries that are
already built PIC for that purpose.
Build shadow header files if there is no unified kernel header tree
Debian's 2.6.29 packages no longer include symlinks from the
architecture-specific header tree to the common header tree; instead,
they use the kbuild machinery with multiple include paths to overlay
the two header files. Adjust both the Autoconf probes to always use
kbuild and the script that generates the build tree. For the latter,
when we don't have a unified header tree, we need to generate headers
in the place where the OpenAFS source expects them that include the
linux/* headers.
