Hi Andrew, After merging the akpm-current tree, today's linux-next build (powerpc ppc64_defconfig) failed like this: powerpc-linux-gcc: error: unrecognized command line option '-m' scripts/Makefile.build:290: recipe for target 'arch/powerpc/purgatory/printf.o' failed and a few more like that. Caused by commit 8635b1186486 ("powerpc: add purgatory for kexec_file_load implementation") I have disabled KEXEC_FILE on powerpc again for now.
