Not entirely. With this patch in the tree, I get:

Building sparc64:allmodconfig ... failed
--------------
Error log:
error: the following would cause module name conflict:
  drivers/char/adi.ko
  drivers/input/joystick/adi.ko
make[1]: *** [modules_check] Error 1
make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
make: *** [__sub-make] Error 2

Reverting this patch fixes the problem.
