powerpc:allmodconfig has been failing for some time with the following
error.

arch/powerpc/kernel/exceptions-64s.S: Assembler messages:
arch/powerpc/kernel/exceptions-64s.S:1312: Error: attempt to move .org backwards
make[1]: *** [arch/powerpc/kernel/head_64.o] Error 1

A number of attempts to fix the problem by moving around code have been
unsuccessful and resulted in failed builds for some configurations and
the discovery of toolchain bugs.

Fix the problem by disabling RELOCATABLE for COMPILE_TEST builds instead.
While this is less than perfect, it avoids substantial code changes
which would otherwise be necessary just to make COMPILE_TEST builds
happy and might have undesired side effects.

I'll dump this in my "fixes" tree today and see how it goes.

would probably be a better here.

Would be great. Note that allyescconfig still fails with relocation errors
after this patch has been applied.

Thanks,

Ben, I know this is not perfect, but on the other side it is simple
and would be easy to backport. With this in place, a complete/clean
fix would not be as urgent. Any chance to get it applied ?

Nick, this doesn't fix the allyesconfig build - it still fails with
relocation errors. But it does fix the allmodconfig build.

Thanks,
Guenter

Yes, that definitely helps, I'll include it as a band aid.
