Build results:
	total: 154 pass: 153 fail: 1
Failed builds:
	powerpc:allmodconfig
Qemu test results:
	total: 430 pass: 430 fail: 0

The build failure is:

Inconsistent kallsyms data
Try make KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS=1 as a workaround

The suggested workaround doesn't help. I see the problem in mainline
and in -next as well, and it is elusive (meaning it is not easy to
reproduce). Given that, it is not an immediate concern.
