This changes the kernel used on the Raspberry Pi 2 from the 3.19 branch
back to the 3.18 branch. This provides a couple of advantages:
1. mmc0 works again. Floris Bos found out that this was due to using
the precompiled DTB files from rpi-firmware. These DTBs were built
using 3.18.
2. The rpi-3.18.y branch is not regularly rebased like rpi-3.19.y
according to popcornmix. See
