just my 2ct: For RedSleeve7 I patched the stock CentOS/RH kernel until it builded. All packages have been build against this kernel-headers. For running the system I use the stock kernels delivered by the various HW vendors.
For everything except ARMv8 that's fine. ARMv8 needs a newer kernel to function properly. Mostly, I have to have a newer kernel, and if the other arm effort can benefit from a common version, why not share for consistency.
