Glad it worked!  It sounds like you're calling create-diff-object
directly, in order to create a patch for an out-of-tree module.  Is that
right?  If so, nicely done.  Would you mind sharing the steps you took?
That might be some good info for the README.  Or could possibly even be
a nice feature to add to kpatch-build.
