A git bisect is really only possible in the full kernel tree.
But it won't take a lot of steps to get a result, because you already
narrowed it down to 4.14-4.15. It might take 10 iterations or so (git
will tell you). Due to incremental builds that can be done pretty
quickly. As the whole kernel is searched for a change, a reboot is
usually needed after each iteration step.

There are a couple of howtos on the web regarding git bisect:
