      Linus Torvalds authored
      Pull sound fixes from Takashi Iwai:
       "A collection of small, mostly device-specific fixes.
      
        The significant one is the regression fix for USB-audio implicit
        feedback devices due to the incorrect frame size calculation, which
        landed in 5.8 and stable trees.
      
        In addition, a few usual HD-audio and USB-audio quirks, Intel HDMI
        fixes, ASoC fsl and rt5682 fixes, as well as the fix in
        compress-offload partial drain operation"

      Raise gcc version requirement to 4.9 · 6ec4476a
      Linus Torvalds authored
      I realize that we fairly recently raised it to 4.8, but the fact is, 4.9
      is a much better minimum version to target.
      
      We have a number of workarounds for actual bugs in pre-4.9 gcc versions
      (including things like internal compiler errors on ARM), but we also
      have some syntactic workarounds for lacking features.
      
      In particular, raising the minimum to 4.9 means that we can now just
      assume _Generic() exists, which is likely the much better replacement
      for a lot of very convoluted built-time magic with conditionals on
      sizeof and/or __builtin_choose_expr() with same_type() etc.
      
      Using _Generic also means that you will need to have a very recent
      version of 'sparse', but thats easy to build yourself, and much less of
      a hassle than some old gcc version can be.
      
      The latest (in a long string) of reasons for minimum compiler version
      upgrades was commit 5435f73d ("efi/x86: Fix build with gcc 4").
      
      Ard points out that RHEL 7 uses gcc-4.8, but the people who stay back on
      old RHEL versions persumably also don't build their own kernels anyway.
      And maybe they should cross-built or just have a little side affair with
      a newer compiler?
