[PATCH 0/2] gcc-plugins: Explicitly document purpose and deprecation schedule

[Kees Cook]

Hi,

GCC plugins should only exist when some compiler feature needs to be
proven but does not exist in either GCC nor Clang. For example, if a
desired feature is already in Clang, it should be added to GCC upstream.
Document this explicitly.

I'll put this in -next unless there are objections. :)

Thanks!

-Kees
