I thought that was mentioned in the guide... Just doubled-checked, 
here's the line from the guide:

NOTE: if you use an ATrpms kernel, you may have to rebuild the driver 
against the ATrpms kernel after you have it up and running. Simply rpm 
-e the already installed driver, then rebuild and install the new 
binary package.

So yes, you do have to run rpmbuild again with the new kernel. Your 
religion isn't 100% devout! :) I'll try to make that clearer in the 
next revision (it was in the initial section on the Broadcom driver, 
but not mentioned in the kernel update section).
