OK. I will.



BTW, if you try to offer a little more kindness,
you may want to check some typos in the commit description.

I suspect some.
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10438869/
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10438873/


Also, the change logs could be dropped.

I see

Since v1: reworded changelog to explain the cause of the problem (thanks
Segher) and moved the flags into the 64-32 cross compile case.

or

Since v1: removed extra -EB in the recordmcount script (thanks mpe)


above your signed-off-by.


Of course, this is your call,
and you do not need to disturb the git history if it is too late.
