Re: 2.6.21-rc7-mm1 on test.kernel.org

Andy, I'm looking at the power4 build:

http://test.kernel.org/abat/84751/debug/test.log.0

which has

  LD      init/built-in.o
  LD      .tmp_vmlinux1
init/built-in.o(.init.text+0x32e4): In function `.rd_load_image':
: undefined reference to `.__kmalloc_size_too_large'
fs/built-in.o(.text+0xa60f0): In function `.ext3_fill_super':
: undefined reference to `.__kmalloc_size_too_large'
fs/built-in.o(.text+0xbe934): In function `.ext2_fill_super':
: undefined reference to `.__kmalloc_size_too_large'
fs/built-in.o(.text+0xf3370): In function `.nfs4_proc_lookup':

something has gone stupid with kmalloc there, and I cannot reproduce it
with my compiler and with your (very old) .config at
http://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/mbligh/config/abat/power4

So I'm a bit stumped.  Does autotest just do `yes "" | make oldconfig' or
what?  When I do that, I get SLUB, but no compile errors.

And do you know what compiler version is being used there?
