Description

At make rpms there are a couple for quirks for the current RHEL8 release.

The new package dependencies are a bit too 'magical' in that the new package that brings in kmodtool and defines kernel_module_package_buildreqs isn't very obvious.

Add enough fallback in the .spec file to 'BuildRequires: redhat-rpm-config kernel-rpm-macros kmod' so on failing it becomes possible to bootstrap into a working RHEL8 environment.
