Replace hardcoded DTB deployment with a recursive sweep that deploys every *.dtb found under arch/arm64/boot/dts into out/. This ensures the kernel packaging script can reliably pick up all DTBs when constructing the .deb. No functional changes to kernel image or module build/install.

…elative paths Add an optional positional argument to build_kernel.sh to override the main kernel tree directory. When not provided, the script continues to use the existing default of $BUILD_TOP/qcom-next/. The argument is captured as 'treedir' and used to derive 'kpath' as $treedir/arch/arm64/boot. Update: resolve 'treedir' to an absolute path when computing 'kpath' to ensure relative arguments (e.g., "kernel-qcom") work correctly and avoid duplicated segments (e.g., kernel-qcom/kernel-qcom/...). No other behavior is changed; build targets, outputs, and environment usage remain identical to the previous version. This allows invoking the script against alternate kernel clones or different workspace layouts without editing the script. Usage: # Default behavior (uses $BUILD_TOP/qcom-next/) ./build_kernel.sh # Custom kernel tree root (absolute) ./build_kernel.sh /path/to/kernel/tree # Custom kernel tree root (relative to current directory) ./build_kernel.sh kernel-qcom Signed-off-by: Bjordis Collaku <bcollaku@qti.qualcomm.com>

Summary
Deploy all device tree blobs (DTBs) by recursively collecting every
*.dtbunderarch/arm64/boot/dtsintoout/. This ensures the kernel packaging script can pick up the complete DTB set when building the.deb, eliminating misses from a hardcoded list.Changes
