kernel: remove support for kernel 4.19
We use 5.4 on all targets by default, and 4.19 has never been released in a stable version. There is no reason to keep it. Signed-off-by: Adrian Schmutzler <freifunk@adrianschmutzler.de>

-The hardware queue scheduling is apparently configured with fixed
-priorities, which creates a nasty fairness issue where traffic from one
-CPU can starve traffic from all other CPUs.

-Work around this issue by forcing all tx packets to go through one CPU,
-until this issue is fixed properly.
