Milton, your distribution of Linux should provide those.
For Debian Linux for example, you'd do:

$ dpkg -S lspci
pciutils: /usr/bin/lspci

..and you note that lspci is in the 'pciutils' package.
You could then do as follows:

$ apt-get update
....
$ apt-get source pciutils

The source would be downloaded and unpacked in the current working
directory.

In that case, google for:
source pciutils
source usbutils
source module-init-tools

You should get your hands on a tarball quickly.

PS:
two tips:
- use "reply to all" when you reply to a message in the lkml
- when you quote previous discussion, place your answer below the quote, instead of above ;)
These things are common courtesy & practice on the lkml.
