[PATCH 05/14] arch/Kconfig: Remove tautological conditions from HAS_LTO_CLANG
From: Nathan Chancellor
Date: Tue Apr 28 2026 - 23:03:20 EST
Now that the minimum supported version of LLVM for building the kernel
has been raised to 17.0.1, two dependency lines in CONFIG_HAS_LTO_CLANG
are always true because Clang will always be newer than 17.0.0, so they
can be removed.
