[PATCH] remove gcc-2 checks

Remove various things which were checking for gcc-1.x and gcc-2.x compilers.

From: Adrian Bunk <bunk@stusta.de>

    Some documentation updates and removes some code paths for gcc < 3.2.

 The gcc version requirements may vary depending on the type of CPU in your
-computer. The next paragraph applies to users of x86 CPUs, but not
-necessarily to users of other CPUs. Users of other CPUs should obtain
-information about their gcc version requirements from another source.
-
-The recommended compiler for the kernel is gcc 2.95.x (x >= 3), and it
-should be used when you need absolute stability. You may use gcc 3.0.x
-instead if you wish, although it may cause problems. Later versions of gcc 
-have not received much testing for Linux kernel compilation, and there are 
-almost certainly bugs (mainly, but not exclusively, in the kernel) that
-will need to be fixed in order to use these compilers. In any case, using
-pgcc instead of plain gcc is just asking for trouble.
-
-The Red Hat gcc 2.96 compiler subtree can also be used to build this tree.
-You should ensure you use gcc-2.96-74 or later. gcc-2.96-54 will not build
-the kernel correctly.
-
-In addition, please pay attention to compiler optimization.  Anything
-greater than -O2 may not be wise.  Similarly, if you choose to use gcc-2.95.x
-or derivatives, be sure not to use -fstrict-aliasing (which, depending on
-your version of gcc 2.95.x, may necessitate using -fno-strict-aliasing).

-   Also remember to upgrade your binutils package (for as/ld/nm and company)
