Compiled Version of Linux Kernel 5.11.x
ELRepo Project The kernel version provided has always been relatively stable, and kernel-ml has always provided the rpm installation package of the latest version of the kernel.
But kernel-ml always no longer provides the old version after the new major version comes out. For example, kernel-ml branches 5.11 to 5.11.16 will no longer be updated.
This article will continue to compile the latest version of 5.11.x until 5.11.x is no longer updated.

Set to start the latest kernel (generally the latest installed kernel boot order is 0)
# grub2-set-default 0
Delete the rpm file.
# rm -fv kernel-ml-*
after that reboot Restart the system and enter the system again, which will be the latest version of the kernel.
