[yocto] [meta-raspberrypi][PATCH 0/2] Drop kernel versions 4.7 and 4.8

[Herve Jourdain]

Hi Gary,

You get this because the patch to the latest 4.7 version have not been
merged...
4.7 has been stable for some time now, unlike 4.8 - and 4.9 will probably
have some similar issues, basically the downstream is heavily rebasing, so
revisions numbers are not reliable anymore.

I'm OK to remove 4.7, since I've branched it - and mine is working fine :)
I have no problem removing 4.8, since I moved from 4.7 to 4.9.

But I believe we might also want to remove 4.1, because it's really very
old, and select the next non-LTS version instead.
That would make it 4.4, 4.9 and next-kernel.

Cheers,
Herve

+1 at least for 4.7 given that with today's repo I get this:
