    I had to reverse
convert-cpu_sibling_map-to-a-per_cpu-data-array-ppc64.patch (and the
fix on top of it) to get past this error on 32bit powerpc:

    I dunno if this will build or work with these reverted (I'm still
looking at other build failures) but backing these out got the build
moving again.

    My .config is attached.
