It seemed odd to say "since 4.17" in a 4.4 kernel. Consider
rewording the reference to indicate where in the stable series
it was introduced as well as where it originated.

Does this brief elaboration add useful information? It seems to
me that someone using a particular series of stable kernels would
find this information to be helpful or at least potentially less
confusing to a non-developer.
