I don't agree here. This will make it hard to keep both things in sync.

The build system of EtherCAT seems to integrate both the build of the
kernel-space parts and the user-space parts, and it's probably doable
inside a single package.

I haven't had the time to look closely, but it seems like the
autotools-based build system triggers the build of the kernel parts. At
least, the kernel part is described by a Kbuild.in file that needs to
be processed by autoconf before being able to build the kernel side
part. So definitely, the userspace parts and kernelspace parts are
related in terms of build system.

Best regards,

Thomas
