so now it's just seeing if it all works when I reboot...
got to go now though, so more later!
I updated my website/blog entry with the comments from this thread for future

Just call make-kpkg again as before, something like

The kernel Makefile will catch your changes and only recompile what is
needed. If I understand correctly, the debian sub-directory will be
recreated on the fly. It should be safe to remove it, though, if the
above does not work out. dpkg will yell out some warnings when you
install the newly built version as it is not able to determine new
module dependencies. In this case, just recompiling a single module,
there shouldn't be a problem. On Mon, Jun 01, 2009 at 01:26:21PM -0400, nescivi

Probably :)
I don't need to rebuild the whole kernel for this, right?
Yes, if you built snd-hdsp as a module. Until recently, you would have
had to call 'make-kpkg clean' after patching, i.e., recompile the
entire kernel, which was a real PITA. Fortunately, this is no longer
needed. A long overdue change in my opinion.
