Dragan Simic bf3c44f67c kbuild: Install dtb files as 0644 in Makefile.dtbinst 
commit 9cc5f3bf63 upstream.

The compiled dtb files aren't executable, so install them with 0644 as their
permission mode, instead of defaulting to 0755 for the permission mode and
installing them with the executable bits set.

Some Linux distributions, including Debian, [1][2][3] already include fixes
in their kernel package build recipes to change the dtb file permissions to
0644 in their kernel packages.  These changes, when additionally propagated
into the long-term kernel versions, will allow such distributions to remove
their downstream fixes.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
