I use stock kernels; haven't had a problem.

No, just download the ALSA stuff, and install the resulting modules in the /lib/modules/{kernel.versio}/kernel/ALSA directory.
ALSA is not a kernel patch; it's a kernel module. Since you're not using Mdk's sources, it just means that you have to compile the kernel, and then ALSA, yourself (2 steps). With Mdk sources, it's only 1 compile (but a kernel close to twice as large, as well - over 1M v 660K, in my case).
