  * (Temporarily) disable armel kernel image build.
    The armel/marvell kernel size is growing to large and the compressed
    image is over the limit.
    Given the armel architecture will most likely not be part of Buster,
    disable the image build.
    Cf. https://lists.debian.org/debian-kernel/2018/01/msg00278.html
  * Set ABI to 1
