If something is compiled fix into the kernel and you want to change it
by modifying the source code, there is no way around to recompile the
whole kernel. So get the CentOS kernel src.rpm (probably you have that
already) and write a patch which you integrate into the kernel-2.6.spec
file. Then rpmbuild the kernel rpm.
