Before I started this work, I don't believe the toolchains used in KernelCI have been changed ever.
We have bumped the versions several times as the kernel
We probably don't want to add all combinations to the build farm, but doing arm and aarch64 builds on linux-next with the compiler of the day seems like a nice addition to me.
I don't speak for all of KernelCI, but I feel like this is... "ToolchainCI" and is possibly out of scope.
We have talked about it in the past (years ago, when the feature was first floated) - from a kernel point of view the benefit is that when new GCC releases come out there's less breakage to triage on both sides, less likelyhood that we have to carry workarounds or whatever.
