Hauke Mehrtens 90740f52e9 ar7: update kernel to version 4.14
This adds support for kernel 4.14 to the target and directly make it the
default kernel version to use.

This patch is build-tested only, but has never been device-tested. It is
only added to preserve the changes in Git history prior to removing this
target. Use it with care.
