The person submitting the patches to the Networking maintainer has to take each patch and move files around and add some files to make it work in the actual kernel tree. Having all files included and already in the correct kernel tree layout should make this a lot easier.
I like the idea. Was moving patches between in- and out-of-kernel-tree batman-adv a few times, too and that'd spare an sed call in the future :).
If I am not mistaken the build process of the various packages need to be adapted unless we provide a Makefile in the root folder ?
Apart from that detail I also like the idea of mimicking the kernel folder structure.
