Hi
 
How are the additional paches from DL_DIR applied ? 
before or after the other patches ?

Ehh, what patches? We don't have any special handling of extra
patches. A few packages download their patches (like vim) instead of
having them under package/<package>, but they get applied just like
the other packages.

From target/linux/Makefile.in.advanced:
$(LINUX26_DIR)/.patched: $(LINUX26_DIR)/.unpacked $(LINUX_HEADERS_DEPENDS)
ifneq ($(LINUX26_PATCH_SOURCE),)
        toolchain/patch-kernel.sh $(LINUX26_DIR) $(DL_DIR) $(LINUX26_PATCH_SOURC
E)
endif
ifneq ($(LINUX26_BSP_PATCH),)
        toolchain/patch-kernel.sh $(LINUX26_DIR) $(DL_DIR) $(LINUX26_BSP_PATCH)
endif
        toolchain/patch-kernel.sh $(LINUX26_DIR) toolchain/kernel-headers \
                linux-$(LINUX26_VERSION)-\*.patch{,.gz,.bz2}

So after the BR2_KERNEL_PATCH, but before the toolchain/kernel-headers
patches.
