Subject: [PATCH]: cross-compiling x86_64 kernel on i386 user-space fails
Date: Sat, 22 Nov 2014 09:51:10 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <54705C8E.1080400@googlemail.com> (raw)

Hi,

Commit e6023367d779060fddc9a52d1f474085b2b36298 broke building an x86_64 kernel in an i386. The change added a call to
objdump but neglected to cater for cross-compiling.

The patch below fixes the problem for me. I see the commit is now in 3.14 and 3.17 -stable, so the patch needs to go
there too.
