I wouldn't recommend fuse module as an example. They're compiling whole kernel just
to get one module. It's the same as compiling libc for 'hello, world' package :)

I'd suggest to package preconfigured kernel sources as separate package and then use it 
as a build-dependency to your module.

If you need my help with this - don't hesitate to ask.
