Build results:
total: 144 pass: 143 fail: 1
Failed builds:
cris:allnoconfig
Qemu test results:
total: 95 pass: 94 fail: 1
Failed tests:
cris:crisv32_defconfig
cris:allnoconfig fails to build because of section mismatches, which is now
fatal with allnoconfig builds (since 47490ec141b9, "modpost: Add flag -E for
making section mismatches fatal"). Proposed patches to fix the problems are
available at [1] and [2]. Other allnoconfig builds (untested by me) probably
fail as well, though.
The cris:crisv32_defconfig qemu test crashes because of interference between
commit 7d8c70d8048c ("serial: mctrl-gpio: rename init function") and commit
7b9c5162c182 ("serial: etraxfs-uart: use mctrl_gpio helpers for handling
modem signals"). A proposed patch is available at [3].
