The drawback of having quick list of recent kernel releases in 2.Process.rst
is that the list can be quickly outdated with newer releases, unless the list
is updated for every upcoming merge window.

There are two options:

  1. Programmatically generate the list, using last 5 mainline releases
     from Linus's tree, or
  2. Simply point to kernel.org frontpage

CC'ing Tony (since he last updated the list) and Randy Dunlap for suggestion.

Thanks.
