It's certainly mips specific, TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE gets set but
there's likely some asm header screwup, maybe hidden by
setting/unsetting some other config option. Wondering if there's any
pending push that may be fixing this already. If you need I can build
the cross compiler and solve it but it's good idea to check if there's
a pending push somewhere (or in -mm) first.

Thanks,
Andrea
