I build my own kernels tailored for that machine so I did not notice that
substitutes were not available. I usually keep pace with whatever is the
latest stable kernel until it goes eol or, if it is a lts, until the
latest stable reaches x.x.3 or x.x.4 minor version. Currently it is on
v. 6.9.12.

I've not had any issues building kernels to it in a long time, but I do
use two local offload builders that are x84_64. None of them have more
than 8 cores though.
