Acked-by: Arnd Bergmann I had the same thought a while back and tried to show that it as already broken, but I never managed to actually download the compiler at the time. It appears that in the meantime, Intel have completely dropped their old codebase and moved to using LLVM[1], so my guess is that with the current releases it will behave the same as clang. It might help to verify that this is indeed the case if you want to add that to the changelog text.
