 The main problem, I suppose, is to get the debian kernel patches. Is
 there a easy way to do a diff between the changes in the kernel.org
 sources and the debian patched sources?

A Debian source package consists essentially of the pristine upstream
source plus a diff containing the Debian changes.  But why do you need
them?

 I've been always curious about what are the changes that the Debian
 kernel team does to the pristine kernel, if any, and the differences
 between the pristine and the Debian .config.

  Description: Linux kernel source for version 2.6.25 with Debian patches
   This package provides source code for the Linux kernel version 2.6.25.
   This source closely tracks official Linux kernel releases.  Debian's
   modifications to that source consist of security fixes, bug fixes, and
   features that have already been (or we believe will be) accepted by the
   upstream maintainers.
