You could rebuild the kernel with the fixes yourself if that is technically possible. But in this case, as far as I can see, the provided patches are against later kernels and are not easily applicable to RHEL/SL kernels.
You can do one (or both) of the two things. One is to file a request at http://bugzilla.redhat.com with a detailed description on why the patches are needed. The other is to try and use kernel-ml [1] from ELRepo. That will let you run the latest mainline kernel from kernel.org on SL 6. There is a good chance that the patches are already in there (not checked yet). Akemi [1] http://elrepo.org/tiki/kernel-ml
