Justin Cormack 2be21dcc78 Update to Linux 4.8.14
Includes fix for CVE-2016-8655 Linux af_packet.c race condition.

This gives a container escape with default container capabilities.

This now has the slow network namespace patch backported, so this
is removed.

Temporary non modular kernel config for pinata alpha

TODO: build with Alpine and/or use Alpine kernels - needs some patches.

The build is mostly silent. To view the output use docker log -f <containerid>. The build creates multiple containers, so multiple invocations may be necessary. To view the full build output one may also invoke docker build . and then copy the build artefacts from the image afterwards.

To build with various debug options enabled, build the kernel with make DEBUG=1. The options enabled are listed in kernel_config.debug. This allocates a significant amount of memory on boot and you may need to adjust the kernel config on some systems. Specifically:
