My plan is to use the following code snippet in debian/rules instead with the next
version:

# Set ARCH so we can cross compile Debian kernel
ifneq ($(shell echo $(KVERS) | grep 86), )
        ARCH := i386
endif
ifneq ($(shell echo $(KVERS) | grep amd64), )
        ARCH := x86_64
endif

This should do it. But could you please test?
