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.
