I actually preferred to have a 2nd major release in 2017, using only kernel 4.9, and then a 3rd major release early 2018 using only kernel 4.14. Unfortunately we seem to lack the manpower to get this done, so I am fine with exploring option 3. My only concern with this, is that it will increase the workload for service releases.
Either way, as I said on IRC, I think we should give option 3 a try for our next major release, and revert back to supporting a single kernel version per release if that proves to be too difficult to maintain. For > 4.9, please have a look at https://git.lede-project.org/?p=lede/stintel/staging.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/kernel This was in perfect shape, but I messed up when reworking after the split of patches directory to {backport,hack,pending}. Nonetheless it should be easier to start from there than to redo everything from scratch.
