If you prefer, I can go back to the older version and just disable
the warning for the architectures with defconfig build failures. I did
a lot of fixes for mips, so at least defconfig and allmodconfig
should be fine now, leaving only alpha, nios2, sh and sparc as
far as I can tell, at least once Linus merges the asm-generic
pull request hat has a bunch of the currently missing fixes.
