[why] Sometimes there are indications that the incorrect driver is being loaded in automated tests. This change adds the ability for builds to be tagged with a string, and picked up by the test infrastructure. [how] dc.c will allocate const for build id, which is init-ed with default value, indicating production build. For test builds, build server will find/replace this value. The test machine will then verify this value.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
