I disagree with the assumption that putting something into the kernel tree benefits the project (except for maybe bumping its visibility, so it potentially kills competition again). If however it's true, then we should analyze why exactly projects benefit from being in the kernel tree, so we can maybe find a good solution to achieve the same differently. The approach "let's move everyting into tools/" simply doesn't scale.
