When I do my kernel development, I do it outside Buildroot, i.e I just
build the kernel separately. If needed, once the kernel development is
done, I use the final kernel version with my developments in Buildroot.

If you really want to do it with Buildroot, have a look at the
OVERRIDE_SRCDIR feature in the Buildroot manual.

Best regards,

Thomas
