Details

The attached patch keeps the amount of lines I need to change in order to build a custom kernel (different name, different sources) to a minimum.

Mostly interesting to me as it makes it easier for me to merge changes.

- "${pkgname}.preset"
+ 'linux.preset'

is this really a good idea?

It's fine since the preset file is installed as $pkgname.preset.
