One thing I thought about earlier, was hardcoding the debuginfo phase
earlier, and then compressing the modules. That way, we could sign the
modules as part of the kernel build, and not have to have this hack
(since by the time find-debuginfo.sh runs "For real" we've compressed
 the modules and they'll not be touched.) Possibly worth investigating
rather than continuing our gross hardcode of __debug_install_post.
