Brian Behlendorf 96cdefab84 Fix rebuildable RPMs for el6/ch5
When rebuilding the source RPM under el5 you need to append the
target_cpu.  However, under el6/ch5 things are packaged correctly
and the arch is already part of kver.  For this reason it also
needs to be stripped from kver when setting kverpkg.

The Solaris Porting Layer (SPL) is a Linux kernel module which provides many of the Solaris kernel APIs. This shim layer makes it possible to run Solaris kernel code in the Linux kernel with relatively minimal modification. This can be particularly useful when you want to track upstream Solaris development closely and dont want the overhead of maintaining a large patch which converts Solaris primitives to Linux primitives.

To build packages for your distribution:

$ ./configure
$ make pkg

Full documentation for building, configuring, and using the SPL can be found at: http://zfsonlinux.org
