Another option is to simply not bother with RPM for this:
1) Grab the source from kernel.org (git clone)
2) Copy the most recent kernel config-* file from /boot to .config in
your kernel source tree.
3.) Apply patches
4) Run 'make oldconfig' and hit enter until it completes.
5) make -j<?> bzImage
6) make -j<?> modules
7) sudo make modules_install
8) sudo make install
When the time comes to clean up, simply remove the unwanted files and
directories from /boot and /lib/modules.
