Absolutely , I am using the latest kernel rc from git. I am using gcc
4.8.3 and binutils 2.83.91.
In addition I am using  the default configurations as you are in less
I am doing it differently.
By the way xtensa-defconfig seems to fail because of binutils as I
discussed this with
the maintainers and they seemed to have tested it with a newer upstream binutils
then I am using and it succeeded it the linking failures I am seeing with it.
Cheers Nick
