This kernel can be built and boot without any problem.
Building a kernel with this kernel also works fine.

 - Build Machine: debian jessy x86_64
   CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2400 CPU @ 3.10GHz x 4
   memory: 8GB

 - Test machine: debian jessy x86_64(KVM guest on the Build Machine)
   vCPU: x2
   memory: 2GB

Thanks,
Satoru
