This doesn't work.  You cannot expect upstream maintainers
to work with you if you're not willing to or able to
try things out with the latest kernels.

I have an inkling as to the reason why you're restricted
in this way, which is that you're limited to some vendor's
kernel.  Am I right?

In that case, work with the vendor unless you can find some
way to remove the lack of flexibility you have in using newer
kernels.
