[PATCH v2 1/2] arm: lib: xor-neon: remove unnecessary GCC < 4.6 warning

From: Adrian Ratiu
Date: Thu Nov 12 2020 - 16:23:45 EST


From: Nathan Chancellor <natechancellor@xxxxxxxxx>

Drop warning because kernel now requires GCC >= v4.9 after
commit 6ec4476ac825 ("Raise gcc version requirement to 4.9").
