That was problematic for me in a similar situation because I tried to
use newer kernels that matched the patches I could download.  That
didn't work so well because of the change to libata in the latest kernels.

I did compile the latest patch against the stock kernel headers and that
is what is running now (9.4.2 on centos 5 i think).  I replaced the
driver in /lib/modules with mine.

I was not booting from the array.  My boot drives are software RAID
because it just works until a drive fails.  then it works when I make it
work.
