Hi @jstancek - because the kernel-automotive package is built separately, but
from the same branch, it shares the stock kernel's changelog and we can copy
the existing changelog instead of maintaining a separate one. Building kernel-
automotive only requires the `dist-git` step, not `dist-release`, so a
dedicated changelog file wouldn't be created or needed since the content is
the same. If we were to leave it as it was it would fail when
`SPECPACKAGE_NAME` is set to kernel-automotive since that file wouldn't exist.

When I was putting this together I didn't foresee another separate and
branched kernel package (since no one has enjoyed the current branched
approach and we've been asked that we merge them together). If there's a need
to be able to rename the stock kernel package name as well (and maybe there
is) then I could introduce a `STOCK_SPECPACKAGE_NAME` and use it here instead
of defining it as `kernel.changelog-*`. I certainly cannot rule out the
possibility that we'll have another branched kernel in the future so maybe I
should keep it flexible.
