Sure, one cannot use an arbitrary xtensa compiler for the kernel
build, the compiler configuration must match the core variant selected
in the linux configuration. Specifically, for the nommu_kc705_defconfig
the following compiler can be used:
https://github.com/foss-xtensa/toolchain/releases/download/2020.07/x86_64-2020.07-xtensa-de212-elf.tar.gz
If you build the toolchain yourself using crosstool-ng or buildroot they
accept the 'configuration overlay' parameter that does the compiler
customization.
Perhaps the documentation for this part is what needs to be improved.
