[elrepo] Can we rename kernel-ml to something more correct?

[Dave Chiluk]

If I'm not mistaken in kernel-ml, ml stands for mainline.  This is actually
quite a misnomer as kernel.org uses mainline to refer to Linus' development
tree.  In actuality kernel-ml is instead built off of the stable tree.
I've seen a number of people get confused by this nuance.

I know it would suck to do, but it really feels like it should be named
something like kernel-stable *(because of kernel.org conventions), or
possibly kernel-st (for short-term).  I'm not really sure what the correct
name should be, but I'm certain it should not be kernel-ml.

We could even create a transitional kernel-ml package that depends on the
newly named rpm to provide a no-brainer upgrade path.

Thanks,
Dave.
