The kernel stops compiling after the second patch because kernel/jump_label.c is compiled unconditionally, and this generates an attempt to include asm/alternatives.h which is an x86-only phenomenon. Do you have access to a cross-compile environment or at least some non-x86 system you can test build on before submitting these patch sets?

I heard cross-compilers? http://kernel.org/pub/tools/crosstool/files/bin/ i686 and x86_64 and 4.4.0 compilers suitable for kernel work. I plan to build 4.4.$latest and 4.5.0 ASAP.

Not sure it's currently maintained though. It was a very useful project, it's a shame if it does not live on. It would be good to have up-to-date and tested compilers for various architectures available on kernel.org, ideally with access to a package that helps building compilers for various architectures.

Trimmed the CC' as this is a bit of a tangent. Crosstool did a good job but seems to be less current than we'd like for the kernel[1]. When using crosstool in the past I found a lot of the complexity was in *libc to the toolcahins I've built don';t have a libc so they're only helpful for kernel (or similar) builds. In terms of "testing", I build a kernel for each toolchain but I don't boot them and in the past I think blackfin said that what I had wouldn't actually be runable. Last time I looked the wasn't a non-intel cross-toolchain for blackfin. I shoudl also mention that a subset of these compilers are used to build test linux-next daily.
