[elrepo] mock.cfg to use kernel-lt?

Hi: For several years I have run MythTV in SL7, using kernel-lt because 
the standard el7 kernel lacks full support for some DVB hardware.  I 
have built MythTV rpms (currently in F32) with a script that used the 
F32 version of epel-7-x86_64-rpmfusion_free.cfg.  Recent commits in 
MythTV broke that, until a link was added to the centos-kernel repo, 
then yielding 5.4.xx.  Now those packages are not being found, and the 
builds fail again with missing references in V4L2.  It looks as if the 
centos packages were built by the centos altarch group, which focuses 
mainly on other architectures.

So...  it might be better to try building with a mock.cfg that would use 
an elrepo kernel.  ISTR that I once assembled one for myself, but is 
there now one that already exists?

Thanks,

John P
