Public bug reported:

oss4 autopkgtest fails when building the dkms module:

https://objectstorage.prodstack4-5.canonical.com/v1/AUTH_77e2ada1e7a84929a74ba3b87153c0ac/autopkgtest-focal/focal/armhf/o/oss4/20200409_153053_073f6@/log.gz

Building initial module for 5.4.0-21-generic
Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 5.4.0-21-generic (armv7l)
Consult /var/lib/dkms/oss4/4.2-build2010/build/make.log for more information.
dpkg: error processing package oss4-dkms (--configure):
 installed oss4-dkms package post-installation script subprocess returned error 
exit status 10
...

Apparently it is caused by kernel Makefiles setting hard and soft float
on the same gcc line (soft is wrong for armhf):

# cat /var/lib/dkms/oss4/4.2-build2010/build/make.log

  CC [M]  /var/lib/dkms/oss4/4.2-build2010/build/core/oss_core.o
gcc: error: -mfloat-abi=soft and -mfloat-abi=hard may not be used together

The source of the wrong flag seems to be:
$ grep soft /usr/src/linux-headers-5.4.0-21/arch/arm/Makefile
KBUILD_CFLAGS   +=$(CFLAGS_ABI) $(CFLAGS_ISA) $(arch-y) $(tune-y) $(call 
cc-option,-mshort-load-bytes,$(call cc-option,-malignment-traps,)) -msoft-float 
-Uarm
...
