OK, to get started I tried:
./gentree.py --clean --git-revision v2.6.25 ~/linux /dev/shm/2.6.25
Get original source files from git ...
Apply patches ...
Failed to apply changes from collateral-evolutions/network/0001-netdev_ops/bluetooth_bnep.patch
 patching file net/bluetooth/bnep/netdev.c
 Hunk #1 FAILED at 223.
 1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file net/bluetooth/bnep/netdev.c.rej

Sorry if I'm missing something there. Or do I have to do it another way?
