Since this is a randconfig (x86_64-randconfig-006-20231006), does it
mean that all other configs worked OK:

i386                             allmodconfig   gcc
i386                              allnoconfig   gcc
i386                             allyesconfig   gcc
i386         buildonly-randconfig-001-20231005   gcc
i386         buildonly-randconfig-002-20231005   gcc
i386         buildonly-randconfig-003-20231005   gcc
i386         buildonly-randconfig-004-20231005   gcc
i386         buildonly-randconfig-005-20231005   gcc
i386         buildonly-randconfig-006-20231005   gcc
i386                              debian-10.3   gcc
i386                                defconfig   gcc
i386                  randconfig-001-20231005   gcc
i386                  randconfig-002-20231005   gcc
i386                  randconfig-003-20231005   gcc
i386                  randconfig-004-20231005   gcc
i386                  randconfig-005-20231005   gcc
i386                  randconfig-006-20231005   gcc

and

x86_64                            allnoconfig   gcc
x86_64                           allyesconfig   gcc
x86_64                              defconfig   gcc
x86_64                randconfig-001-20231005   gcc
x86_64                randconfig-002-20231005   gcc
x86_64                randconfig-003-20231005   gcc
x86_64                randconfig-004-20231005   gcc
x86_64                randconfig-005-20231005   gcc
x86_64                randconfig-006-20231005   gcc
x86_64                          rhel-8.3-rust   clang
x86_64                               rhel-8.3   gcc

are of interest to me. Assuming they are built with gcc-12, I wouldn't
immediately blame the compiler for the failure. Due to the nature of
the change, perhaps a weakness in the kernel has been found with some
obscure config setting. As said, my default Fedora 39 kernel (6.5.5),
built with gcc-13 works without any problems.

Also, does a successful report from yesterday [1] mean everything was OK?
