For Arch Linux we install dkms sources to /usr/src/$pkgname-$pkgver, so for
wireguard we have: /usr/src/wireguard-0.0.20161129/

So directory content looks something like this:

/usr/src/wireguard-0.0.20161129/
/usr/src/wireguard-0.0.20161129/Kbuild
/usr/src/wireguard-0.0.20161129/Kconfig
/usr/src/wireguard-0.0.20161129/Makefile
/usr/src/wireguard-0.0.20161129/dkms.conf
/usr/src/wireguard-0.0.20161129/*.c
/usr/src/wireguard-0.0.20161129/*.h
/usr/src/wireguard-0.0.20161129/crypto/
/usr/src/wireguard-0.0.20161129/crypto/*.S
/usr/src/wireguard-0.0.20161129/crypto/*.c
/usr/src/wireguard-0.0.20161129/crypto/*.h
/usr/src/wireguard-0.0.20161129/selftest/
/usr/src/wireguard-0.0.20161129/selftest/*.h

To have something like this would be great:

make DESTDIR="$pkgdir/" DKMSDIR="/usr/src/$pkgname-$pkgver" dkms
-- 
main(a){char*c=/*    Schoene Gruesse                         */"B?IJj;MEH"
"CX:;",b;for(a/*    Best regards             my address:    */=0;b=c[a++];)
putchar(b-1/(/*    Chris            cc -ox -xc - && ./x    */b/42*2-3)*42);}
