Sure, this one was built from a plain next-20210203:

  http://storage.staging.kernelci.org/gtucker/next-20210203-ard-fix/v5.10-rc4-24722-g58b6c0e507b7-gtucker_single-staging-33/arm/multi_v7_defconfig/clang-11/zImage

You can also find the dtbs, modules and other things in that same
directory.

For the record, here's the test job that used it:
