Are linux-next builds being tested for powerpc with allyesconfig and
allmodconfig ? I have some changes I'm making and while debugging my
build issues I decided to give a clean build a shot and see linux-next
next-20160729 up to next-20160729 all have build failures without my
changes. I get:

/opt/gcc-4.9.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux-ld:
drivers/built-in.o: .opd is not a regular array of opd entries
  MODPOST vmlinux.o
  GEN     .version
  CHK     include/generated/compile.h
  UPD     include/generated/compile.h
  CC      init/version.o
  LD      init/built-in.o
/opt/gcc-4.9.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux-ld:
drivers/built-in.o: .opd is not a regular array of opd entries
drivers/built-in.o: In function `.ipw2100_up':
ipw2100.c:(.text+0x1ff9c90): relocation truncated to fit:

"relocation truncated to fit"  errors are typical for ppc:allyesconfig.

Thanks for the confirmation. For how long is it known this is broken?
Does anyone care and fix these ? Or is this best effort?

allmodconfig should work, though.

OK thanks.
