[PATCH v2 2/3] kbuild: check the minimum assembler version in Kconfig

2021-03-15 Thread Masahiro Yamada
Documentation/process/changes.rst defines the minimum assembler version (binutils version), but we have never checked it in the build time. Kbuild never invokes 'as' directly because all assembly files in the kernel tree are *.S, hence must be preprocessed. I do not expect raw assembly source
