Maybe this can clearify the purpose of COMPILE_TEST:
diff --git a/init/Kconfig b/init/Kconfig
--- a/init/Kconfig
+++ b/init/Kconfig
@@ -67,6 +67,26 @@ config COMPILE_TEST
here. If you are a user/distributor, say N here to exclude useless
drivers to be distributed.

+ # that might not have the necessary toolchain or kernel config handy and
