Disable lintian for kernel build 
This change disables lintian for the kernel builds since it does not
provide additional value when running multiple times and also takes
considerable amount of time to check the packages.

Installation

Select from the Releases page the kernel version you want to install and download the appropriate deb package. Then, you can install the package as follows:

apt install ./pve-edge-kernel-VERSION-MARCH_VERSION_amd64.deb

AppArmor issues

When using these kernels, Proxmox's AppArmor profiles may fail to load since it uses an older AppArmor feature set which is not supported by these kernels anymore. This issue also appears when launching LXC containers. To fix this, tell AppArmor to use the stock features file as opposed to Proxmox's features file, which is done by updating /etc/apparmor/parser.conf as follows:

## Pin feature set (avoid regressions when policy is lagging behind
## the kernel)
# lxc-pve diverts to old feature file that is incompatible with kernel
# features-file=/usr/share/apparmor-features/features
features-file=/usr/share/apparmor-features/features.stock
