Hi,

While working on the "reproducible builds" effort [1], we have noticed
that dh-kpatches is generating packages that are not reproducible.

The attached patch removes timestamps generated by dh-kpatches. Once
applied, packages that use it can be built reproducibly in our current
experimental framework.
