I can not help much, because I only build kmdls for Fedora.

But, basically, for lirc, you need the complete kernel tree.
You do not need to compile the kernel, but you need to follow the howto
until

make mrpoper
make modules

Then you can build the kmdl for lirc.

I have built lirc myself in the past, and never had any issue, but as I said
not for RHEL.
