Unfortunately it appears that the parisc changes cause build failures
with parisc 64 bit builds.

Building parisc:a500_defconfig ... failed
Building parisc:generic-64bit_defconfig ... failed

Error log:
arch/parisc/kernel/built-in.o: In function `sys_call_table':
(.rodata+0xad0): undefined reference to `compat_sys_renameat2'
make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1

parisc 32 bit builds (defconfig and generic-32bit_defconfig) are fine.
