To reproduce described build problems (covered in patches 1, 2, 3, 5) you may indeed use Buildroot.
Just get the most recent release from here http://buildroot.uclibc.org/downloads/buildroot-2014.11.tar.gz
and use load following configuration in "menuconfig":
--->---
BR2_arcle=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT_LARGEFILE=y
BR2_LINUX_KERNEL=y
BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_DEFCONFIG="fpga"
BR2_PACKAGE_PERF=y
BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_INITRAMFS=y 
--->---

Then say "make" and you'll see the problem.
If you experience any problems trying to follow my advice please let me
know and I'll try to help you.
