Maybe it will cheer you up to hear that all you have to do is get the
kernel Source SRPM from your vendor, do an rpm -i to get the tar file
and all the patches they used.  Then, you can take each patch and
(usually!) apply it to a fresh kernel source that you've downloaded,
or at least go find the latest version of each patch, the RAID patch
being one example.
