The kernel-devicetree class now sets RDEPENDS_${KERNEL_PACKAGE_NAME}-base so we
needs to do the same, otherwise bitbake emits a warning. Reference change is
6c8c899 commit in oe-core.

Currently, using kernel config fragments is not working. If you try
adding one as documented in the Yocto Mega Manual [1], it will be
ignored.
There are two reasons for this:
- The config fragment logic is in kernel-yocto.bbclass, so we need to inherit
that (this is similar to what linux-raspberrypi does in meta-raspberrypi).
- We remove ${B}/.config, which undoes any config created by
kernel-yocto.
Fix this by inheriting kernel-yocto and not removing ${B}/.config. With
this patch, fragments are working. Note that we also need to add a few
variables (like KERNEL_KBUILD) to make kernel-yocto happy.

- remove older stable release recipes
- bump stable linux recipe to 4.14.2
- bump git linux recipe to 4.15-rc1
- rename linux to linux-mainline
Renaming kernel recipe from 'linux' to 'linux-mainline' is needed to
get ready for adding aarch64 support. The reason is in the value of
OVERRIDES environment variable. BitBake uses OVERRIDES to control what
variables are overridden after BitBake parses recipes and configuration
files. So packages names are not allowed to take values listed in
OVERRIDES. One of the OVERRIDES values is TARGET_OS:
TARGET_OS = linux${LIBCEXTENSION}${ABIEXTENSION}
For arm architecture TARGET_OS = "linux-gnueabi". However for aarch64
architecture TARGET_OS = "linux". As a result, in the case of aarch64
kernel package can not be named 'linux'. This patch renames kernel
package name to 'linux-mainline' in order to be able to maintain the
same kernel recipes for both arm and aarch64 boards.
