we are cloning the kernel each time we call the
prepare_source script. This is not good for local development as it takes a few minutes each time which makes the workflow for fixing patches harder.
It would be nice if we could avoid doing this each time for a local development setup. We should still avoid a 'dirty' state, i.e. applied patches need to be accounted for.
