kernel v5.9-rc6 not compiling

Hi.  I've been building kernels weekly since 1996.  Never had one not 
build before today.  v5.9-rc6 does not compile.

Error:

... so its not like I'm stuck, I can pick any of a number of old kernels 
from the bootloader.  And I've had a lot of rc kernels over the years 
that would build, but weren't finished (occasionally I would get an oops 
in dmesg).  Again pick another kernel from the bootloader, preferrably a 
more stable non-rc one. But I don't think I've ever had a kernel not 
compile before.  I'm waiting for the nouveau drivers to firm up, but DAX 
is page cache for ext2/3/4 file systems (and I use ext4).  Hopefully my 
report is useful.  Thank you.
