Since commit 5acf49119630 ("drm/msm: import gen_header.py script from Mesa"),
compilation is broken on machines having python versions older than 3.9

Is it now okay to require Python for the build? Not listed in
Documentation/process/changes.rst.
BR,
Jani.
The change to move gen_header.py to kernel is already part of the v6.10
pull request.
This change only fixes the version dependency.
But, I agree we should update the changes.rst (better late than never).
Dmitry, can you pls suggest which version we want to list there?
I am hoping that after this change there are no further dependencies on
python versions, so anything > EOL should be fine.
I am leaning towards v3.8
Switch to use simple bool for the validate flag to remove the dependency.
Fixes: 5acf49119630 ("drm/msm: import gen_header.py script from Mesa")
