Since this effectively enforces a minimum version for Clang, I'd
also update `Documentation/process/changes.rst` and
`Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst` to mention this, and perhaps
use that as a commit title ("implement minimum version for Clang")
since that is the important change, not the implementation so much!

[Actually, I'd remove the particular GCC version from the
`admin-guide/README.rst` to avoid having the version in 2 places (that
doc already links to the other one), but that should be another
patch.]
