I assume this is not 100% correct.
see the possibilities of srvctl:
srvctl add listener -h
Adds a listener configuration to the Oracle Clusterware.
Usage: srvctl add listener [-l <lsnr_name>] [-s] [-p "[TCP:]<port>[,
...][/IPC:<key>][/NMP:<pipe_name>][/TCPS:<s_port>] [/SDP:<port>]"] [-o
<oracle_home>] [-k <net_num>]
-l <lsnr_name> Listener name (default name is LISTENER)
-o <oracle_home> ORACLE_HOME path (default value is CRS_HOME)
-k <net_num> network number (default number is 1)
-s Skip the checking of ports
-p "[TCP:]<port>[, ...][/IPC:<key>][/NMP:<pipe_name>][/TCPS:<s_port>]
[/SDP:<port>]" Comma separated tcp ports or listener endpoints
-h Print usage
there you can define a oracle_home. This would not make sense if you MUST use
the grid home - CRS would know about the grid_home quite well.
So you can use any oracle_home which is supported in combination with the
version of grid_home.
Still I'd suggest to use the listener of your CRS as long as possible.
