The patch titled
     Subject: compiler-gcc: improve version error
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     compiler-gcc-improve-version-error.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

Subject: compiler-gcc: improve version error

As Kees suggests, doing so provides developers with two useful pieces of
information:
- The kernel build was attempting to use GCC.
  (Maybe they accidentally poked the wrong configs in a CI.)
- They need 4.9 or better.
  ("Upgrade to what version?" doesn't need to be dug out of documentation,
   headers, etc.)
