[KERNEL][Stock 224][Z5C][6.0.x]OM5Z Kernel

I am NOT responsible for any damage done to your device, your neighbor, or any other things you like/hate.

Introduction:

@myself5 and I were in need for a custom stock kernel to mess with. Since all the available Options were not fitting our needs, or gave us bad experience on some aspects, and we knew about Zombie Kernel from Tom, we decided to start working on that. So I brought up support for the Z5, we ported Kexec to it, updated it to 224 and added various things. Since the kernel gave us very good experiences, we decided to make it accessible to the public.

About:
This Kernel is based on @Tommy-Geenexus Zombie Kernel. He was ok with us continuing/porting his projects, so myself5 and I started to create the "oshmoun Myself5 Zombie Kernel" aka OM5Z Kernel.

Thanks a lot to those who have donated!

Additional Information:
Some stock kernels require different Recovery Images than AOSP Kernels. We set an end too this, and fixed init_sony, rather than using some very outdated software which somehow works. This means, you might need to use a different recovery with this kernel if you're currently on a "stock" recovery. We're hoping that other stock kernel devs adapt our solution, so we can set an end to the old scripts.
