Why did the kpatch-build script export the KPATCH-BUILD environment variable from the BUILD directory to the SOURCE directory? about kpatch HOT 3 CLOSED

It's been quite a while since this was changed, but from 4a7dab1:

I also tried to disambiguate `SRCDIR` in kpatch-build a bit. Now there are 3 variables:
- `KERNEL_SRCDIR` - contains path to kernel source directory
- `OOT_MODULE_SRCDIR` - contains path to out-of-tree module source directory
- `BUILDDIR` - can be set to either of the above and is used for patch-related actions

so I think BUILDDIR allows kpatch-build to run make from either the kernel tree or an OOT module tree.

What is the command line that you are using to build your kpatch for an OOT module. It's not as common as building for vmlinux/in-tree-modules so there may very well be a bug in the script.
