Pull compiler version requirement update from Arnd Bergmann: "Require gcc-8 and binutils-2.30
x86 already uses gcc-8 as the minimum version, this changes all other architectures to the same version. gcc-8 is used is Debian 10 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8, both of which are still supported, and binutils 2.30 is the oldest corresponding version on those.
Ubuntu Pro 18.04 and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 15 both use gcc-7 as the system compiler but additionally include toolchains that remain supported.
With the new minimum toolchain versions, a number of workarounds for older versions can be dropped, in particular on x86_64 and arm64. Importantly, the updated compiler version allows removing two of the five remaining gcc plugins, as support for sancov and structeak features is already included in modern compiler versions.
I tried collecting the known changes that are possible based on the new toolchain version, but expect that more cleanups will be possible.
Since this touches multiple architectures, I merged the patches through the asm-generic tree."

gcc-plugins: remove SANCOV gcc plugin
With the minimum gcc version raised to 8.1, all supported compilers now understand the -fsanitize-coverage=trace-pc option, and there is no longer a need for the separate compiler plugin.
Since only gcc-5 was able to use the plugin for several year now, it was already likely unused.

Kbuild: remove structleak gcc plugin
gcc-12 and higher support the -ftrivial-auto-var-init= flag, after gcc-8 is the minimum version, this is half of the supported ones, and the vast majority of the versions that users are actually likely to have, so it seems like a good time to stop having the fallback plugin implementation
Older toolchains are still able to build kernels normally without this plugin, but won't be able to use variable initialization..

gcc-plugins: Force full rebuild when plugins change
There was no dependency between the plugins changing and the rest of the kernel being built. This could cause strange behaviors as instrumentation could vary between targets depending on when they were built.
Generate a new header file, gcc-plugins.h, any time the GCC plugins change. Include the header file in compiler-version.h when its associated feature name, GCC_PLUGINS, is defined. This will be picked up by fixdep and force rebuilds where needed.
Add a generic "touch" kbuild command, which will be used again in a following patch. Add a "normalize_path" string helper to make the "TOUCH" output less ugly.

Merge series from AngeloGioacchino Del Regno <angelogioacchino.delregno@collabora.com>:
In an effort to give some love to the apparently forgotten MT6795 SoC, I am upstreaming more components that are necessary to support platforms powered by this one apart from a simple boot to serial console.
This series adds support for the regulators found in MT6331 and MT6332 main/companion PMICs.
Adding support to each driver in each subsystem is done in different patch series as to avoid spamming uninteresting patches to maintainers.
Tested on a MT6795 Sony Xperia M5 (codename "Holly") smartphone.
