And kisskb reported the following link failure on m68k:

    ERROR: "__udivdi3" [drivers/thermal/qcom/qcom_tsens.ko] undefined!

Probably caused by a plain 64-bit division in the code.
I expect this shows up on other 32-bit platforms, too.

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
