This is a bit better. However,

Building mips:cavium_octeon_defconfig ... failed
--------------
Error log:

arch/mips/cavium-octeon/setup.c: In function 'octeon_restart':
arch/mips/cavium-octeon/setup.c:415:3: error: implicit declaration of function 'OCTEON_IS_OCTEON3' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
arch/mips/cavium-octeon/setup.c:416:19: error: 'CVMX_RST_SOFT_RST' undeclared (first use in this function)

due to commit 03dc9c96d0e0 ("MIPS: OCTEON: Use correct CSR to soft reset").
This patch fixes Octeon III support, which I think is not in 3.18, so maybe
you can just drop it.

Also, I still see:

arch/x86/lib/insn.c: In function 'insn_init':
arch/x86/lib/insn.c:59:6: error: 'buf_len' undeclared

for all x86_64 and i386 builds (d597f507791d is still in the image).
