Add changes suggested by @dlech, add -b flag to cloning the kernel instructons, so it clones the trixie branch, add instructions to install debhelper for sharing your kernel, updated rebasing guide, added a submodule updating guide - successfully compiled the kernel (build debian package) with these changes - there is a problem with ./build-kernel by itself, with generating a uImage
