In case this is useful to others, I am using the following trick
with softlinks to create -p1 patches suitable to applying to kernel
(requires svn client revision 1.2.3 and up):

cd trunk/src/linux-kernel/
ln -s . drivers
cd ../
svn diff --diff-cmd "/usr/bin/diff" -x -up linux-kernel/drivers/infiniband

I've put this information in the FAQ.
