Hi,

LTTng-modules tracer 2.9.12, 2.10.9, 2.11.0-rc4 releases add support for Linux
kernel v4.20 and v5.0, as well as support for the RHEL 7.6 Linux kernel.

I realized that 2.11.0-rc3 was missing a RHEL 7.6 build fix, so I released
a 2.11.0-rc4 immediately after this "Doh!" moment, appropriately celebrating
Homer Simpson's birthday.
