compat-drivers: fix copying of pending-stable patches
This correctly copies the pending-stable patches for each
subsystem. When running ./scripts/admin-update.sh -s
we will now stats pending-stable for each subsystem:

This package provides backport support for drivers from newer kernels down to older kernels. It currently backports 3 subsystems:
This package provides the latest Linux kernel subsystem enhancements for kernels 2.6.24 and above. It is technically possible to support kernels < 2.6.24 but more work is required for that.
This package is documented online and has more-up-to date information online than on this README file. You should read the wiki page and not rely on this README!
