Hello,
I tried to compile the latest Git kernel today. Unfortunately it doesn't
compile.
Error messages:
CC arch/powerpc/kernel/udbg_16550.o

I have found the bad commit. It's "Merge tag 'kbuild-v5.12' of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/masahiroy/linux-kbuild" [1]
The changes in the Makefile (a/Makefile) are responsible for the
compiling errors. [2]
I was able to revert this bad commit. After that it compiled without any
problems.
Could you please compile the latest Git kernel and confirm this issue?
Thanks,
Christian
