There is not really a 'procedure' to do that . certianly not in CentOS. The RHEL team currently only publishes the linux-*.tar.gz file in the SOURCES .. they do not publish individual patches, just the tarball with the patches already applied. I see no public way .. other than the changelog of the SRPM, to figure out what is different. There may be a way for RHEL customers to see individual patches at access.redhat.com .. but that is not really a CentOS question. You CAN do a diff on the exploded tarball from the SRPM and either the last kernel released (to see what is in this update) .. or the kernel.org reference kernel .. to see what is different from the kernel.org release. If there is a public way to actually see the RHEL patches, I'm sure someone will post it.
