When we change items compared to the Upstream Vendor we document them in
SL.releasenote .

Since it is in the vendor/ directory and not in the SRPMS/ directory this 
also indicates that we did not change anything.

You should use the version in 41/SRPMS/vendor .

Note that you do not necessarily need the .src.rpm as the Upstream Vendor 
has changed the procedure for making kernel modules.  See the 
SL.documentation/RELEASE-NOTES* for info on how to do this.
