[Bug libc/11287] New: UTS_RELEASE nolonger in <linux/version.h>

[sdrake at xnet dot co dot nz]

In the csu/Makefile($(objpfx)version-info.h) generation code tries to use the
UTS_RELEASE macro from linux/version.h, however that macro has not been defined
in linux/version.h since linux-2.6.18

proposed patch

My proposed patch obtains the linux uts release string from <linux/version.h>
by reverse enginering the value of the LINUX_VERSION_CODE macro.  This will
work for kernel header install by the 'headers_install' make target of linux as
linux/version.h is included.

Fixed in git.  We cannot just remove the old code, those kernels are still
supported.  I've also used a slightly different patch.
