I recommend instead doing the same thing that all the out-of-tree kernel
modules that build with module-assistant do: ship the source as a .tar.bz2
file, unpack it during the build, and then make clean after a successful
build.

Please don't ship files mode 600.  It's a Policy violation for all the
good reasons stated in Policy.
