Kernel prepatch 7.1-rc1

Linus has released 7.1-rc1 and closed the merge window for this release. Things look fairly normal, although we do have a few different projects to cull some old hardware support to help minimize maintenance burden: phasing out i486 support (configs deleted, code deletions to follow) and independently starting to remove some really old networking hardware support, and removing some SoC support that never went anywhere. But we're more than making up for any stale code removal with all the new features and code added, so the diffstat still shows many more lines added than removed.
