Both repositories are following now the 4.9.x LTS branch, but :
- kernel generic is built from vanilla/upstream kernel from kernel.org ,
so works on all boards supported "upstream"
- rpi2 kernel is the one built from https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux
(that also rebase from upstream LTS but with their patches added in for
the rpi2/rpi3)

Last kernels that were pushed last week are :
- 4.9.65 for generic (4.9.64 had an issue with the embedded wifi on the
cubietruck)
- 4.9.64 for rpi2/rpi3

BTW, we never had any image for rpi2/rpi3 that was using the
kernel-generic repo
