Actually, I think we might just need to merge in Debian's base-files 11.0. It
has dropped all the VERSION, VERSION_ID and CODENAME headers from
/etc/os-release. See
https://tracker.debian.org/media/packages/b/base-files/changelog-11

That makes lsb_release -cs return 'n/a' which is an expected and handled case.

Are you able to remove VERSION, VERSION_ID and CODENAME and verify that the
kernel builds successfully?

Thanks

Mark
