You mean the test kernels from updates-testing? I was once offering
kmdls for these kernel, but two issues came up: Noone would use them,
and when the kernel was to become golden (e.g. move for
updates-testing to updates) it more often than not got a last minute
change invalidating all kmdls for it, so either way I had to face
rebuilds.

It would be nice if there was a way to be notified of new kernels as
soon as they get committed. There is fedora-packages-announce and the
rawhide report, but the info there is when the kernel is already in
the wild, and scanning fedora-packages-announce/rawhide reports just
for new kernels is rather cumbersome.

I usually notice new kernels rather fast enough because I'm also
hosting an official mirror.
