If you've found an APCI spec bug send a note to Len Brown anyway (you can
file a bug but Len at the end of the day is the Mr ACPI) <len.brown@xxxxxxxxx>.

As shipped the binary kernel tree is set up to build modules against. You
should be able to "make mrproper" and then build a new tree from it (you
might want to cp .config somewhere safe first)

If you install the kernel src.rpm package you get the scripts/setup to rebuild

probably not what you need
