Please tell what you're trying to achieve. If you could
compile the source, what are you going to use the object
file for?

It is not possible to exchange a single file in the kernel
without having a compatible set of other kernel pieces, so
the result of exchanging a single object code file would
probably lead to an undesired end result.

Touch file file and then do a "make" in the main kernel source
directory.

No.  Use make.
