`gcc` has always been fixed in kinetic.

The default GCC is what matters here. It is gcc-11 in jammy based off
whatever devel packaging has.

In kinetic this is already fixed in the default GCC, which is gcc-12 as
used to build the kernel.

We do not support building kernels with arbitrary toolchains, thus there is
no support requirement to keep gcc-11 (non default) updated in kinetic,
even as we update gcc-11 (default) in jammy & devel.
