It could be as easy as replacing:
~~~
%kernel_module_package
~~~
by
~~~
%{?kernel_module_package}
~~~
This should allow to build the SRPM and later when binary RPM is build,
there have to be `BR: kernel-rpm-macros`.
Unfortunately, that's not good enough. The %kernel_module_package
macro defines BRs and a subpackage. Without the macro working as
designed (where the macros already exist in the buildroot), kernel
modules cannot be successfully built.
