kbuild: rpm-pkg: disable kernel-devel package when cross-compiling
Since commit f1d87664b82a ("kbuild: cross-compile linux-headers package
when possible"), 'make binrpm-pkg' may attempt to cross-compile the
kernel-devel package, but it fails under certain circumstances.
For example, when CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_FORMAT is enabled on openSUSE
Tumbleweed, the following command fails:
$ make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-suse-linux- binrpm-pkg
[ snip ]

compilation terminated.
I believe this issue is less common on Fedora because the disto's cross-
compilier cannot link user-space programs. Hence, CONFIG_CC_CAN_LINK is
unset.
On Fedora 40, the package information explains this limitation clearly:
$ dnf info gcc-aarch64-linux-gnu
[ snip ]
Description : Cross-build GNU C compiler.
:
: Only building kernels is currently supported. Support for cross-building
: user space programs is not currently provided as that would massively multiply
: the number of packages.
Anyway, cross-compiling RPM packages is somewhat challenging.
This commit disables the kernel-devel package when cross-compiling
because I did not come up with a better solution.
