According to the document "Minimal requirements to compile the Kernel [1],
the minimal version of GCC is 5.1, -mr10k-cache-barrier=store is supported
with GCC 5.1 [2], so just remove the unnecessary check to fix the build
error [3]:

  arch/mips/sgi-ip22/Platform:28: *** gcc doesn't support needed option -mr10k-cache-barrier=store.  Stop.

[1] is the kernel document, so you do not need to refer to the URL.

You can say:

 According to Documentation/process/changes.rst, ...



https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest is the moving target.
If you get access to this URL some years later, the min GCC
version may not be 5.1



Other than the nit,
