You will be more likely to get an authoritative answer to your question
on the fedora-kernel mailing list.  I build a custom kernel from the
src.rpm using rpmbuild, and Justin, and others, have helped me with
problems in the past, though the official policy is if you build a
custom kernel, you are on your own.  I don't build any out of tree
drivers, so I have not dealt with your problem.  I vaguely recall that
Fedora doesn't allow out of tree drivers, so your question about the
spec file ignoring them is reasonable.  It is probably a workaround to
get them to build in a custom kernel.

I haven't patched the kernel for a while, and when I looked at the spec
file, it was different than I remember.  There have been several
ways of patching, as the build process changed, and the spec file was
enhanced. And it looks like it has changed again.  There have been a
lot of changes to the spec file over the past year as ARC has been
implemented.  The archives of the kernel mailing list show all the
changes.
