Build results:
	total: 161 pass: 159 fail: 2
Failed builds:
	i386:allyesconfig
	i386:allmodconfig
Qemu test results:
	total: 544 pass: 544 fail: 0
Unit test results:
	pass: 487271 fail: 0

The i386 build failure is still

x86_64-linux-ld: drivers/dma/tegra210-adma.o: in function `tegra_adma_probe':
tegra210-adma.c:(.text+0x1322): undefined reference to `__udivdi3'

The failure is triggered by commit 68811c928f88 ("dmaengine: tegra210-adma:
Support channel page"). A fix has been submitted a while ago. See [1].
It hasn't been applied to linux-next. I don't know the status.
Copying those involved for feedback.
