Galaxy S7 Edge(International Edition - Yup that one) Kernel Has Been Made Opensource.

Hello everyone,
The Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge - International Edition's kernel has been made opensource (The one variant that we thought would never get an opensource kernel has got it, officially :p), but I have a few questions :
Q1. Will Cyanogenmod ever come for it, because this phone will never get any version updates form Samsung, unless you buy the S8, S9 etc...etc....
Q2. Does this opensource kernel mean it can be directly used to compile a version of Android N on the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge - International Edition, without many hiccups ...... hiccup :p.

P.S. I do know that TWRP is available for this variant of the Samsung flagship,making it a 2016 developer phone, but is it worth it because the custom ROMs are not out yet to use, if they ever come, that is.

Here's a link to the page from where you can download it's kernel sources :
