linux is really a package.

You in fact can already do that, if you use BR2_GLOBAL_PATCH_DIR.
Regarding whether we should switch from linux-*.patch to *.patch, I
don't know. It might break the build for people having various patches
in the directory point by BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_PATCH. But maybe we should
break the build for them at some point, and get to a situation where we
are consistent.
Best regards,
Thomas
