Subject: BISECTED: Compile error on 5.4-rc1

I just tried to compile kernel 5.4-rc1 on my ThinkPad, which runs Devuan
Beowulf. Got the following:

$ make bindeb-pkg
  UPD     include/config/kernel.release
sh ./scripts/package/mkdebian
dpkg-buildpackage -r"fakeroot -u" -a$(cat debian/arch)  -b -nc -uc

Bisecting gives me

858805b336be1cabb3d9033adaa3676574d12e37 is the first bad commit
commit 858805b336be1cabb3d9033adaa3676574d12e37
Author: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@...ionext.com>
Date:   Sun Aug 25 22:28:37 2019 +0900
...

By reverting commit 858805b336be1cabb3d9033adaa3676574d12e37 I could
compile the kernel.
