scripts/min-tool-version.sh: raise minimum clang version to 14.0.0 for s390
Before version 14.0.0 llvm's integrated assembler fails to handle some
displacement variants:
arch/s390/purgatory/head.S:108:10: error: invalid operand for instruction
lg %r11,kernel_type-.base_crash(%r13)
Instead of working around this and given that this is already fixed
raise the minimum clang version from 13.0.0 to 14.0.0.

Remove Intel compiler support
include/linux/compiler-intel.h had no update in the past 3 years.
We often forget about the third C compiler to build the kernel.
For example, commit a0a12c3ed057 ("asm goto: eradicate CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO")
only mentioned GCC and Clang.
init/Kconfig defines CC_IS_GCC and CC_IS_CLANG but not CC_IS_ICC,
and nobody has reported any issue.
I guess the Intel Compiler support is broken, and nobody is caring
about it.
Harald Arnesen pointed out ICC (classic Intel C/C++ compiler) is
deprecated:
$ icc -v
icc: remark #10441: The Intel(R) C++ Compiler Classic (ICC) is
deprecated and will be removed from product release in the second half
of 2023. The Intel(R) oneAPI DPC++/C++ Compiler (ICX) is the recommended
compiler moving forward. Please transition to use this compiler. Use
'-diag-disable=10441' to disable this message.
icc version 2021.7.0 (gcc version 12.1.0 compatibility)
Arnd Bergmann provided a link to the article, "Intel C/C++ compilers

lib/zstd/common/compiler.h and lib/zstd/compress/zstd_fast.c were kept
untouched for better sync with https://github.com/facebook/zstd

Documentation: raise minimum supported version of GCC to 5.1
commit fad7cd3310db ("nbd: add the check to prevent overflow in
__nbd_ioctl()") raised an issue from the fallback helpers added in
commit f0907827a8 ("compiler.h: enable builtin overflow checkers and
add fallback code")
Specifically, the helpers for checking whether the results of a
multiplication overflowed (__unsigned_mul_overflow,
__signed_add_overflow) use the division operator when
!COMPILER_HAS_GENERIC_BUILTIN_OVERFLOW. This is problematic for 64b
operands on 32b hosts.
Also, because the macro is type agnostic, it is very difficult to write
a similarly type generic macro that dispatches to one of:
* div64_s64
* div64_u64
* div_s64
* div_u64
Raising the minimum supported versions allows us to remove all of the
fallback helpers for !COMPILER_HAS_GENERIC_BUILTIN_OVERFLOW, instead
dispatching the compiler builtins.
arm64 has already raised the minimum supported GCC version to 5.1, do
this for all targets now. See the link below for the previous
discussion.

clang versions prior to the current development version of 13.0.0 cannot
compile s390 after commit 3abbdfde5a65 ("s390/bitops: use register pair
instead of register asm") and the s390 maintainers do not intend to work
around this in the kernel. Codify this in scripts/min-tool-version.sh
similar to arm64 with GCC 5.1.0 so that there are no reports of broken
builds.
[hca@linux.ibm.com: breaking compatibility with older clang compilers
is intended to finally make use of a feature which allows the
compiler to allocate even/odd register pairs. This is possible since
a very long time with gcc, but only since llvm-project commit
d058262b1471 ("[SystemZ] Support i128 inline asm operands.") with
clang. Using that feature allows to get rid of error prone register
asm statements, of which the above named kernel commit is only the
first of a larger not yet complete series.]

The kernel build uses various tools, many of which are provided by the
same software suite, for example, LLVM and Binutils.
When you raise the minimum version of Clang/LLVM, you need to update
clang_min_version in scripts/cc-version.sh and also lld_min_version in
scripts/ld-version.sh.
Kbuild can handle CC=clang and LD=ld.lld independently, but it does not
make much sense to maintain their versions separately.
Let's create a central place of minimum tool versions so you do not need
to touch multiple files. scripts/min-tool-version.sh prints the minimum
version of the given tool.
