Can't help with answers to your questions, but i believe I can help with
this task. It's as simple as
$ git clone https://github.com/notro/fbtft_tools.git

$ make

provided you have installed the linux-headers package matching your
kernel. No need to care about the Debian kernel patches and build
infrastructure at all.
Or did you mean something else?
