Impact:

apt-get source suggets the wrong instructions when inquiring for linux-meta-raspi2:

$ apt-get source linux-meta-raspi2
...
NOTICE: 'linux-meta-raspi2' packaging is maintained in the 'Git' version control
system at:
git://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux-meta/+git/cosmic
raspi2
Please use:
git clone
git://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux-meta/+git/cosmic
raspi2
to retrieve the latest (possibly unreleased) updates to the package.

which, if executed, result in a checkout of the master branch in a raspi2
subdirectory (instead of a checkout of the raspi2 branch).

Fix:

Fix the Vcs-Git line in linux-meta-raspi2/debian/control.common.

How to test:

Check the output of `apt-get source linux-meta-raspi2`, a fixed version will
suggest:

...
git clone
git://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux-meta/+git/cosmic -b
raspi2
...

Regression potential:

Very low, trivial modification.

Attached patch is for E, Disco, Cosmic and Bionic - Xenial requires a slightly
different patch.
