kernel/linux: simplify custom tarball handling

Simplify the way the custom tarball is handled:
- fake version="custom"
- at download, simply link the custom tarball to:
"linux-custom.${custom_extension}"
- at extract, the above allows to simply extract "linux-${LINUX_VERSION}"
where LINUX_VERISON is set to the fake version="custom"

Not that much convoluted, in fact... :-/

    11       The sstrip utility, to maximise the striping of ELF binaries

    12       (executables and libraries).

    13       

    14       Buildroot version, forked off the original from ELFkickers.

    15       This one is somewhat maintained by the buildroot guys.

    16       Supports big-endian systems.

    17       

    18       NOTE! Please read.

    19         sstrip is now deprecated in crosstool-NG, as it has a few

    20         shortcomings. For example: it breaks for PPC targets, it

    21         does not build on non-ELF hosts (eg. mingw32, MacOS-X...).
