code names

The GCC 4.9 -march option supports the intel code names for
processors, for example -march=silvermont, -march=broadwell.
The RTE_MACHINE config flag can be used to pass code name to the
compiler as -march flag. Also old gcc versions compatibility code for
the intel platform is removed from
mk/toolchain/gcc/rte.toolchain-compat.mk

Do you mean to not support GCC < 4.9 ?

Yes.
