cd /usr/src/linux

Now, using vi, vim, emacs, nano, pico, joe, or whatever editor you
prefer, edit Makefile and on the line 'EXTRAVERSION =' change it to
something other than what's already there. It should say (using what you
have above) -22 and can be cnaged to -22.1 or -monkey or -22.iLIKElinux
or anything you want. That will create modules in a different directory,
Just make sure to name the kernel image,  initrd (if you use one) and
System.map accordingly.
