Maybe you can consider using alpine linux 4.1 config?

Do you know which patch set is used for kernels 4.x ?

@ncopa, can you answer this? as you mostly take care of these.

we (alpine linux) use unofficial port of grsecurity patch which we maintain our selves.

we also have an unofficial patch for 3.18.23 (which boots in qemu x86_64) but the .22 release had some nasty conflicts for fixing the NMI issue so we havent pushed that for production yet, as we need test it.

I dont think it should affect ARM though.
