I would drop the kernel dependency. It doesn't make sense already in
some contexts (containers) and this is a Fedora package for Fedora
users, so I think anyone who would install it would have a kernel, and
if it's a supported Fedora release it would be larger than 4.18.0.

Dropping i686 kernels just means there's no more media/images for i686,
but we keep building everything in case we need it for multilib.
I would assume now you should keep building things, and if there's a
change down the road to limit the scope of i686 more you could drop it
when/if it makes sense then.
