Linus Torvalds dee264c16a 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.

 "Require gcc-8 and binutils-2.30

  x86 already uses gcc-8 as the minimum version, this changes all other

  binutils 2.30 is the oldest corresponding version on those.
