which is introducing task hash changes for some
allarch package builds, and should no longer
be needed with recent versions of qemu.

Hi,
Latest yocto still take "CentOS 7.x" as Supported Linux Distributions. But
centos7 have kernel version 3.10.
But we have some archs, like aarch64, set OLDEST_KERNEL to 3.14. Without "-r
${OLDEST_KERNEL}",
some recipes which will run qemu during configure or compile will failed with
error:
FATAL: kernel too old
How about add it back?

It was removed for a reason and believed to be no longer needed. Which version
of qemu was this with?

For aarch64,  systemd do_configure  failed during run following command:

Running test binary command: tmp-glibc/work/cortexa72-wrs-linux/systemd/1_249.7-r0/meson-qemuwrapper tmp-glibc/work/cortexa72-wrs-linux/systemd/1_249.7-r0/build/meson-private/sanitycheckc_cross.exe

meson-qemuwrapper is wrapper of qemu-aarch64

Cheers,
