I don't like user.git and kernel.git, because when you do a git clone,
you have directories called "user" and "kernel". Especially "user" is
too generic.

Using git it makes IMHO no sense to have linux-2.4 and linux (>=2.6)
next to each other in one repo. Either make it two repos or two heads.

If you have linux-can.git containing the 2.6+ out-of-tree modules you
can cherry pick fixes from the mainline kernel.
