Marco Elver e68dcd8eac kcsan: Re-add GCC as a supported compiler
GCC version 11 recently implemented all requirements to correctly
support KCSAN:

1. Correct no_sanitize-attribute inlining behaviour:
   https://gcc.gnu.org/git/?p=gcc.git;a=commit;h=4089df8ef4a63126b0774c39b6638845244c20d2

2. --param=tsan-distinguish-volatile
   https://gcc.gnu.org/git/?p=gcc.git;a=commit;h=ab2789ec507a94f1a75a6534bca51c7b39037ce0

3. --param=tsan-instrument-func-entry-exit
   https://gcc.gnu.org/git/?p=gcc.git;a=commit;h=06712fc68dc9843d9af7c7ac10047f49d305ad76

Therefore, we can re-enable GCC for KCSAN, and document the new compiler
requirements.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
