linux-stable replaces linux-edge
For years, linux-lts and linux-edge grew apart and developed their own kernel configs, different architectures, etc.
Now linux-edge gets replaced with linux-stable which has the identical configuration as linux-lts, but follows the stable releases instead of the long-term releases (see https://kernel.org/).
If you had linux-edge installed, apk automatically installs linux-stable as a replacement. There is a reasonably amount of kernel config differences, if you need a config option that existed previously in linux-edge, please open a issue to add the required option to linux-lts. Also this change might involve manual boot loader configuration, as the kernel has been renamed and follows linux-lts' packaging recipe.
