Thanks everyone for viewing and trying to think over it. I got my solution for this strange problem. So that none of u face same problem i'll tell what happened.
I created my kernel module and created a patch (mymodule.patch file) for it. Next I went through the patch-o-matic and learnt how to add ones own new patches to the already existing ones. Now I created all files required to patch makefile, config.in file etc. But to my surprise when I applied this patch last two lines were not included in the C file that resulted from patch. These two lines contained module initialisation and exit code. And so upon calling from user space though the module was loaded but it was loaded as tainted module. Luckily on going through again and again I could find the mistake and then rectified it.
So this way i got rid of problem but still thanks to u all for atleast looking into my problem.

NAME
edit-patch, add-patch - tool for preparing patches for Debian source packages SYNOPSIS
edit-patch path/to/patch add-patch path/to/patch DESCRIPTION
edit-patch is a wrapper script around the Quilt, CDBS, and dpatch patch systems. It simplifies the process of preparing and editing patches to Debian source packages and allows the user to not have to be concerned with which patch system is in use. Run from inside the root directory of the source package, edit-patch can be used to edit existing patches located in debian/patches. It can also be used to incorporate new patches. If pointed at a patch not already present, it will copy the patch to debian/patches in the correct format for the patch system in use. Next, the patch is applied and a subshell is opened in order to edit the patch. Typing exit or pressing Ctrl-d will close the subshell and launch an editor to record the debian/changelog entry. edit-patch is integrated with the Bazaar and Git version control systems. The patch will be automatically added to the tree, and the debian/changelog entry will be used as the commit message. If no patch system is present, the patch is applied inline, and a copy is stored in debian/patches-applied. add-patch is the non-interactive version of edit-patch. The patch will be incorporated but no editor or subshell will be spawned. AUTHORS
