This repeats the Linux version, and I think the use of "+" in version
numbers qualifies as slang we would better avoid in such a user-visible
document (well, there's no previous such use here ever anyway). We also
seem to avoid the use of "kernel" in references to Linux versions here.
How about:
* Support for the RISC-V ISA running on Linux has been expanded to run on
32-bit hardware. This is supported for the following ISA and ABI pairs:
- rv32imac ilp32
- rv32imafdc ilp32
- rv32imafdc ilp32d
The 32-bit RISC-V port requires at least Linux 5.4, GCC 7.1 and binutils
2.28.
then?
