:) ok.. That one is thanks to the nature of OBS ;) -> kernel is a single 
package which has all patches, spec files for all platforms. The trick 
then is that the OBS builds the package when the package name == spec 
file name. basically in OBS, kernel is *linked*(just like ln -s) as 
kernel-ivi package, kernel-mid package and kernel-netbook package.

That said, in OBS, it is possible to maintain diffs to the main package 
(so it is not exactly ln -s ;) ), though as a norm, you should not find 
diff for the kernel packages though. to be sure - you can diff the 
contents of the rpms -> they should all ideally be the same.
