From cd4eaccc00d79ab97d9a96f7922558558b13f220 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lukas Bulwahn Date: Fri, 10 Oct 2025 10:21:38 +0200 Subject: treewide: drop outdated compiler version remarks in Kconfig help texts As of writing, Documentation/Changes states the minimal versions of GNU C being 8.1, Clang being 15.0.0 and binutils being 2.30. A few Kconfig help texts are pointing out that specific GCC and Clang versions are needed, but by now, those pointers to versions, such later than 4.0, later than 4.4, or clang later than 5.0, are obsolete and unlikely to be found by users configuring their kernel builds anyway. Drop these outdated remarks in Kconfig help texts referring to older compiler and binutils versions. No functional change.
