Freeze Break request: update kernel on buildhw-x86*

[Kevin Fenzi]

Hey everyone. 

The koji builders are currently using 6.7.6-200.fc39, which is mostly
fine, but on i386 builds there's some kind of memory issue and (some)
builds run out of memory and fail. ;( 

See: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/issue/11775

I'd like to upgrade the buildhw-x86* builders to the latest 6.8.x
kernel. We tried this in staging and it let the build complete fine.
We only need to do those builders because those are the only ones in the
'heavybuilder' channel that webkitgtk builds use, and the x86 ones are
the only ones that do i386 builds. ;) 

We could I suppose update all the buildvm-x86* also in case there are
other packages we don't know about that are affected, but then the
change is wider.

So, +1s? Thoughts?

It's a +1 from me, but understand I will be out of pocket starting
later this week for quite some time. While I have coverage lined up
for most Fedora bits, 32bit will likely be low priority for them.

+1. worst case it blows up everything, we reboot them back to 6.7,
right?
