[Buildroot] [PATCH] support/testing: test_clang: update to the next LTS kernel (4.19.x)

[Buildroot] [PATCH] support/testing: test_clang: update to the next LTS kernel (4.19.x)

[Romain Naour]

The kernel 4.16.7 curently used by the test doesn't build with host
bison (GNU Bison 3.7.5) probably due a missing fix [1] in 4.16.x branch.

Since kernel 4.16 is EOL, bump to the next LTS kernel (4.19.x) in order
to ease backport to previous Buildroot releases.

Fixes:

  Applied to master, thanks.

  We should really create more downloadable kernel and rely on those instead of 
building the kernel during the runtime test. It takes a lot of time with no 
merit. Unfortunately, those are on abo which only Thomas has access to...

  Arnout

I will be happy to update those binaries if need be, and also there is
nothing that really prevents from changing the location where those
files are hosted.

Best regards,

Thomas
