Merge tag 'gcc-minimum-version-6.16' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/asm-generic

Pull compiler version requirement update from Arnd Bergmann:
 "Require gcc-8 and binutils-2.30

  x86 already uses gcc-8 as the minimum version, this changes all other
  architectures to the same version. gcc-8 is used is Debian 10 and Red
  Hat Enterprise Linux 8, both of which are still supported, and
  binutils 2.30 is the oldest corresponding version on those.

  Ubuntu Pro 18.04 and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 15 both use gcc-7 as
  the system compiler but additionally include toolchains that remain
  supported.

  With the new minimum toolchain versions, a number of workarounds for
  older versions can be dropped, in particular on x86_64 and arm64.
  Importantly, the updated compiler version allows removing two of the
  five remaining gcc plugins, as support for sancov and structeak
  features is already included in modern compiler versions.

  I tried collecting the known changes that are possible based on the
  new toolchain version, but expect that more cleanups will be possible.

  Since this touches multiple architectures, I merged the patches
  through the asm-generic tree."
