Subject: linux-next: build failure after merge of the akpm-current tree

Hi Andrew,

After merging the akpm-current tree, today's linux-next build (powerpc
ppc64_defconfig) failed like this:

powerpc-linux-gcc: error: unrecognized command line option '-m'
scripts/Makefile.build:290: recipe for target 'arch/powerpc/purgatory/printf.o' failed

and a few more like that.

Caused by commit

  8635b1186486 ("powerpc: add purgatory for kexec_file_load implementation")

I have disabled KEXEC_FILE on powerpc again for now.
