The DPDK project is only committed to supporting upstream kernel
versions that are still in support.
The 3.16 kernel has reached End Of Life (in June 2020).
The next LTS kernel is 4.19 and is supported until December 2024.
This does not change the existing policy that distribution kernels
that are older are still supported.

No objection, but I see 4.4 is the oldest LTS, and there are a few in the middle
till 4.19 [1]. Is 4.19 selected specially?
And what about adding a note to say oldest LTS kernel version is supported?
