Heh. The docs clearly weren't in sync before either.

Maybe we should add a

Fixes: 5429ef62bcf3 ("compiler/gcc: Raise minimum GCC version for
kernel builds to 4.8")

to your patch too.

I only grepped for the obvious GCC_VERSION string. Which is presumably
what everybody else who has ever done this have also grepped for,
although in all fairness Will at least caught the one in
Documentation/process/changes.rst when he updated it last time.
