So, do we raise the minimum gcc version for the kernel as a whole to 5.1
or just for aarch64?
I'd personally love to see gcc-5 as the global minimum version, as that
would let us finally use --std=gnu11 features instead of gnu89. [There are
a couple of useful features that are incompatible with gnu89, and
gnu99/gnu11 support in gcc didn't like the kernel sources]
+1 for raising the tree-wide minimum (again!). We actually have a bunch
of work-arounds for 4.9 bugs we can get rid of as well.
