If you want the source code of the kernel running on the system, then use "apt source" instead of cloning the kernel from elsewhere.
There are 2 ways of working for additional kernel drivers:
- build the whole kernel yourself
- use DKMS to build the additional modules triggered by apt updating the kernel.
The first is easiest for development, and then there is no mismatch between the kernel source and that running on your system.
DKMS is the better route for distribution of said module if you don't want it merged into the main kernel tree.
