I'm getting the gmp.h failures :-(.

I believe we should not change build requirements in the middle of
stable series.

To our testing team: 5.10.85 introduced new requirements for the
build. gmp.h is now required in our configs, and maybe something else.

Easiest fix might be to add

# CONFIG_GCC_PLUGINS is not set

to our configs. Alternatively I know which patch to revert.

But I believe -stable should be the one doing the revert, as the patch
does not fix serious bug and introduces problem. Faster compile is
nice but let mainline have those kind of changes.

Best regards,
								Pavel
