-git4 was fine. -git5 and later are broken.
AFAICS, it was this change: 700f9672c9a61c12334651a94d17ec04620e1976

This config on x86_64:
http://test.kernel.org/abat/62550/build/dotconfig

results in this compile failure:
http://test.kernel.org/abat/62550/debug/test.log.0

last bits are:

This has been reported many times to this list, please check
the archives at least casually before reporting build failures
like this, thanks :-)

Andrew will merge a fix.
