That's a "local version". People can name kernels whatever they want with it. I could compile a kernel version named "slartibartfast" if I wanted to. The name's only meaningful to whoever compiled it.
So what the names mean depend on where you got it in the first place.

Hi All,
Is there a max number of slabs that can be used per kernel module? I'm having a tough time finding out that kind of information, but the array 'node_zonelists' (mmzone.h) has a size of 5. I just want to avoid buffer overruns and other bad stuff.

NAME
isalist - display the native instruction sets executable on this platform
SYNOPSIS
isalist
DESCRIPTION
isalist prints the names of the native instruction sets executable on this platform on the standard output, as returned by the SI_ISALIST
command of sysinfo(2).
The names are space-separated and are ordered in the sense of best performance. That is, earlier-named instruction sets may contain more
instructions than later-named instruction sets; a program that is compiled for an earlier-named instruction sets will most likely run
faster on this machine than the same program compiled for a later-named instruction set.
Programs compiled for instruction sets that do not appear in the list will most likely experience performance degradation or not run at all
on this machine.
The instruction set names known to the system are listed in isalist(5). These names may or may not match predefined names or compiler
options in the C language compilation system,
