No, I did not... DKMS is my preferred way of packaging external kernel
modules. I cloned, ran make and created dkms.conf for packaging. ;)

BTW, and Arch people here? Give it at try:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/wireguard-git/

Basically that's all we need. Put everything (dkms.conf, Makefile, *.c,
*.h, crypto/) into /usr/src/wireguard-$version, run

$ dkms install -m wireguard -v $version -k $kernelversion

and load the module.

We could add version handling and install target to the Makefile, but that's
optional. I will look into that the next days.
