Hi Greg,
[ just in case 0day didn't report it yet ]
sparc64 builds fail in v4.4-stable-queue with
arch/sparc/lib/multi3.S:2:24: fatal error:
asm/export.h: No such file or directory
This is with v4.4.71-20-gff35505 when building any sparc64 image.
Culprit is "sparc64: Add __multi3 for gcc 7.x and later".
Presumably some context patch is missing. Copying the author
and Dave.

Greg, a backport to 4.4 needs to export the symbol via
arch/sparc/kernel/sparc64_ksyms.c or whatever it used
to be called when we couldn't export symbols via assembler.

Yeah, this is my fault, I'll work on it later today, and if I can't
figure it out, just drop it. The number of sparc users on 4.4 is pretty
small, if non-existant :)
thanks,
