You can try with newer kernels from ElRepo 
(http://elrepo.org/tiki/tiki-index.php) that have compatible API's with 
EL6. look for elrepo-kernel section on main page. Currently there are 
kernels 3.0.83-1 and 3.9.7-1. But do note that those are third party 
kernels, even though ElRepo is safe third party repository.
