Well, there is one reason :-)
If you've applied any other patches to the source and recompiled
the kernel, depending upon the relative amount of pain involved,
you may opt to patch the kernel sources for the upgrades.
However, in this case, going from 2.2.5 to 2.213 is a HUGE jump
and all those patches are likely to be a problem. I'd just get the
full source and work from there, too...
