My 2 cents here.
1) In the past I had hardly traceable issues with gentoo-sources
which were not present in vanilla kernels. I just switched back to
vanilla.
2) Gentoo-sources are sometimes behind vanilla kernel. Due to some
derivative from Murphy's law this always happens when I need some
new features.
3) I looked over patches in gentoo-sources and found none I'm
interested into. (That doesn't mean they are useless, just not my
usecases.)
Best regards,
Andrew Savchenko
