Build customized Linux kernels in the ports tree.  You can provide your own
Linux configuration files with the LINUX_KCONFIG make variable and the port
supports running Linux' menuconfig (among other targets) via `make
_menuconfig`.

Poudriere testbuilds on FreeBSD 9.3/amd64, 10.3/amd64 are fine.  portlint -AC
has this to say:

WARN: Makefile: [133]: possible direct use of command "patch" found. use
${PATCH} instead.
WARN: Makefile: using hyphen in PORTNAME. consider using PKGNAMEPREFIX and/or
PKGNAMESUFFIX.
0 fatal errors and 2 warnings found.

The first warning is a false positive.  Considering there are various ports
with hyphens in their name I ignored it, but I'm not opposed to renaming the
port if this is wanted.

I'm planning on tracking the most recent stable kernel, which is 4.6.5 at the
moment.
