RPi4 on armv7h is EOL'ed with linux-rpi-6.18.0-1

⚠️ RPi4 + armv7h users only: Linux 6.18 removed bcm2711_defconfig (due to ARM LPAE deprecation). The rpi‑6.18.y kernel will NOT boot on RPi4 on armv7h. If you just upgraded, downgrade immediately or switch to 64‑bit to avoid an unbootable system.

RPi4B running the following are unaffected:
linux-rpi-6.18.0-1 on aarch64
linux-aarch64-6.18.0-1 on aarch64
