You shouldn't need to rebuild the whole kernel. Just make sure
kernel-devel is installed and build the drivers you want.

sudo yum install kernel-devel
cd
git-clone 
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-dev.git
cd wireless-dev/drivers/net/wireless/mac80211/bcm43xx
make -C /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build SUBDIRS=`pwd` modules
sudo rmmod bcm43xx-mac80211 \; insmod ./bcm43xx-mac80211.ko
