It supports all kernel versions up to the latest ones for which it
contains a patch. For instance xenomai 2.6.4 contains I-pipe patches
for version 3.14, so it supports all kernel versions up to 3.14.

Look at the latest I-pipe patch it contains.

None. You would have to port the I-pipe patch to that version.
