You should download the original kernel from
www.kernel.org (or your favorite mirror) and compile it
with the new drivers instead of messing with the modified

If you are "patch"-savvy, you could diff the two kernels,
then install the BT patches, and then apply the RedHat
diffs, but there's no guarantee that will work.
