   Ok - That mean I will have to recompile the kernel I presume, unless
   there is a special tool to modify this value rigth into the kernel on

there is no tool.  however, the kernel should be able to find it
automatically.... this is a bug we should try to fix rather than
work around in your kernel config :-)
