I'm still working on building a kernel for the BeagleBone Black.

I tried the standard method of generating the ipipe patch and applying
it to the BeagleBone patched kernel source.  The first problem I
encountered was an unknown architecture error for the
net/ethernet/cadence/at91_ether.c driver.  I edited the genpatches.sh
script and forced this to x86 (since I'm pretty sure I don't need this
driver for the BeagleBone).  Note the patch set for the 3.14 BeagleBone
kernel is mostly device-tree changes and about four fairly simple
back-ported fixes.

The next problem comes when building the kernel, I get an undefined
warning from the raid456.ko module (see below).  I'll keep plugging
away, but any advice would be appreciated.

Kernel build error:
