sudo pacman -Rns linux-meta

Introducing linux-meta package to deal with EOL kernels more automated

Since we got several reports about issues around linux69 removal we created meta packages called linux-meta and packages for the extramodules. It will detect end of life Kernels and replace them with the current recommended kernel. For now with linux610 series. Please report back if you have any issues with this provided solution.
