We do have some Config.in.legacy handling for those options:

$ grep KERNEL_HEADERS Config.in.legacy 
config BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_4_10
config BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_4_11
config BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_4_12
config BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_4_13
config BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_4_15
config BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_4_17
config BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_3_4
config BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_3_10
config BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_3_12
config BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_4_8
config BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_3_18
config BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_4_7
config BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_4_6
config BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_4_5
config BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_3_14
config BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_4_3
config BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_4_2
config BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_4_0
config BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_3_19
config BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_3_17
config BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_3_16
config BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_3_0
config BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_3_11
config BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_3_13
config BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_3_15
config BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_3_8
config BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_3_6
config BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_3_7
config BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_SNAP
config BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_3_1
config BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_3_3
config BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_3_5

Shouldn't we continue with the same process ?

Best regards,

Thomas
