Be careful with some of the patches. I tried doing that awhile ago, but ran
into a problem with software raid support. The software raid patch for 2.2.18
patched in just fine, but it didn't work at all, in fact it broke software raid
support all together. After a few emails to the maintainer of the software raid
patch, he did fix it.
Anyway, just something to keep in mind before making a new kernel rpm and
moving past the officially supported kernel and it's patches.
