There is a 4.x kernel already in the centos repos, it might be good to
visit that and contribute developer time towards maintaining that. If
you really want to push in a 3.18.x kernel, then what sort of a
maintenance and support cycle are you looking at ? and how do you plan
on executing that ?

We can likely find a place as an alternate CentOS Plus kernel, if there
is enough confidence in having a supported setup.
