The ARM defconfig build doesnt fail here:

  WARNING: modpost: Found 5 section mismatch(es).
  To see full details build your kernel with:
  'make CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y'

Is there some integration artifact here perhaps? If yes then linux-next 
needs to resolve the integration artifact. If not then benh, Yinghai, 
hpa, please have a look ...

Thanks,
