Here is the final verdict:
	total: 134 pass: 114 fail: 20
Failed builds:
	arc:defconfig (inherited from mainline)
	arc:tb10x_defconfig (inherited from mainline)
	arm:efm32_defconfig
	blackfin:defconfig
	c6x:dsk6455_defconfig
	c6x:evmc6457_defconfig
	c6x:evmc6678_defconfig
	ia64:defconfig
	m68k:m5272c3_defconfig
	m68k:m5307c3_defconfig
	m68k:m5249evb_defconfig
	m68k:m5407c3_defconfig
	microblaze:nommu_defconfig
	mips:allmodconfig (inherited from -next)
	powerpc:cell_defconfig (binutils 2.23)
	powerpc:cell_defconfig (binutils 2.24)
	sparc64:allmodconfig (inherited from -next)
	x86_64:allyesconfig
	x86_64:allmodconfig
	xtensa:allmodconfig (inherited from -next)

There are also qemu warnings for arm, but those are inherited from -next.

Good start overall ...
