Research direction

Open the linked Wiki page, How-to-compile-kernel-standalone, and review the toolchain clone step. Document the version-specific git checkout command and explain how to match a tag to the stock Android version. Done means the standalone kernel build instructions include this requirement clearly.

Description

at this instructions page for building standalone kernel
https://github.com/MiCode/Xiaomi_Kernel_OpenSource/wiki/How-to-compile-kernel-standalone

after this step
$ git clone https://android.googlesource.com/platform/prebuilts/gcc/linux-x86/aarch64/aarch64-linux-android-4.9 toolchain

you should manually checkout via "cd toolchain && git checkout tags/" for android version specific toolchain or your build will fail.
Note: to find a tag, match it to your stock android version number on this page https://android.googlesource.com/platform/prebuilts/gcc/linux-x86/aarch64/aarch64-linux-android-4.9
