Kernel FTBFS on hppa.
Problem is, that on hppa the 32-bit strip and 32-bit objdump binaries can't
process
hppa 64-bit objects. Log shows, e.g.:
make[3]: Leaving directory '/home/deller/build/linux/linux-6.6.8'

The kernel commit e30336ff6519e31077b27210f595ea7fbd23a2c9
("Don't run dh_strip on vmlinuz") worked around the issue once.
But this patch can fix the issue too:

The best solution is probably to fix binutils for hppa to cope
with 32- and 64-bit hppa binaries. For that I opened ticket #1059674
