My test setup builds defconfigs for all architectures using the gcc-9.3
based cross-compilers from kernel.org (except the ones I have no
compiler for). That used to work for CSky and MIPS(64) when working on
my vmalloc changes.

On MIPS the build failure looks like some Makefile breakage, but I
didn't dive deeper into that.

For CSky the compiler complains about not supporting '-mbacktrace'.

The below diff fixed the alpha build for me, but I am sure another fix
is already queued somewhere.
