https://github.com/openela/kernel-lts is a version of the v4.14 Linux kernel, maintained by https://openela.org/ on top of the last kernel.org release, ostensibly to the same standards as the now-discontinued kernel.org point releases.
Unlike kernel.org, OpenELA provides no XZ tarballs, only GZ ones, which would result in an unreasonable srcfs footprint growth. However, the diff from the last kernel.org release to the latest OpenELA one (excluding the ".elts" metadata directory) is less than 500KiB, which is much more reasonable to include.

Dropping these into the patches directories in linux & linux-headers provides an easy path to upgrade to these still-supported kernels.
OpenELA intends to support this fork at least until the end of 2024.
