Hello Patrick,

The ts4800_defconfig you have contributed to Buildroot no longer builds:

  https://gitlab.com/buildroot.org/buildroot/-/jobs/269139300

The error is not visible directly in the Gitlab CI output, but
inspecting the full build log reveals this:

/tmp/cceWXtEN.s: Assembler messages:

This happens because we updated our default gcc version to gcc 8.x, and
the kernel you're using is too old and doesn't have fixes to work with
gcc 8.x. Could you update to a newer kernel version ?

Also, could you send a patch adding yourself as a maintainer for this
defconfig in our DEVELOPERS file ?

Thanks!

Thomas
