AFAIK is the package module-assistant made for such things.
This is it's (long) description:
Description: tool to make module package creation easier
The module-assistant tool helps users and maintainers with managing
external kernel modules packaged for Debian. It can do:
.
- automated preparation of build environment for modules compilation
(eg. automatical detection and installation of required kernel
source/headers)
- automated module source downloads
- configuring and keeping track of external and localy built modules
packages
- semi-automated multiple builds for multiple kernel versions
.
It also contains some framework to be used by the build-scripts in the
accompanying modules-source packages in Debian.

The largest profit for support in the kernel is for the
hardware manufactors.
