This is the last (almost) upstream kernel I tried, unfortunately 
recently I am very short on spare time, so cannot confirm for 4.x 
kernels, but in theory those should work as well.

The kernel tree was on gitorious, but it is down now(I have a local 
copy). However, all of the needed patches should be on 
https://github.com/pali/linux-n900.
