Still, I don't like the custom autotools commands we'll have to have.
What about (mock-up, just for the sake of the example):

    ###############
    # usbip
    ###############

    # No USBIP_SITE, no USB_VERSION, we vampirise the code from the
    # linux kernel
    USBIP_PATCH_DEPENDENCIES = linux

    USBIP_SRC_DIR = $)(wildcard \
        $(LINUX_DIR)/tools/usb/usbip \
        $(LINUX_DIR)/drivers/staging/blabla)

    define USBIP_EXTRACT_CMDS
        if [ -z "$(USB_SRC_DIR)" ]; then \
            echo "No usbip source in your kernel tree" 2>&1; \
            exit 1; \
        fi
        rsync $(USB_SRC_DIR) $(@D)
    endef

    $(eval $(autotools-package))

This way, we still have a proper autotools package, we don;t fail on
source-check, and we re-use the kernel sources.
