the effect that .init_end is not in a sectiion in my last attempts to build 3.10 kernels (both for Atari and Amiga).
Strange. Can you send me kernel and .config by private email?
I had been using a patched version of vmlinux.lds to add extra explicit alignment at the end to pad the last section out to a page boundary (binutils 2.16 is even more horribly broken than 2.18 potentially is), but changes to vmlinux.lds appear to have defeated that.
For cross-compiling, you can also try (ia32 version available as well): https://www.kernel.org/pub/tools/crosstool/files/bin/x86_64/4.6.3/ These should work.
Now that you have got tglx' attention in regards to the interrupt polling, I would certainly be willing to test his patch. 3.10 won't boot - how far back do I have to go?
Happily running 3.12 here. atari_defconfig should be fine.
