Bisected with ia64 to commit 26f954a9e4e2 ("Makefile: link with -z
noexecstack --no-warn-rwx-segments"). I did not test everything,
but every build I did test passes with this patch reverted.

Ick, I was trying to fix up builds with newer binutils.  Seems to have
worked for 4.14.y, but not 4.9.y.  I'll go revert the above commit, and
2 others, and push out a -rc2.

thanks for testing and letting me know.

This fails all over on ARM, with messages such as:

/builds/cip-project/cip-testing/linux-stable-rc-ci/gcc/gcc-11.1.0-nolibc/arm-linux-gnueabi/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi-ld: error: source object drivers/net/ethernet/smsc/built-in.o has EABI version 5, but target drivers/net/ethernet/built-in.o has EABI version 0
2761/builds/cip-project/cip-testing/linux-stable-rc-ci/gcc/gcc-11.1.0-nolibc/arm-linux-gnueabi/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi-ld: failed to merge target specific data of file drivers/net/ethernet/smsc/built-in.o
2762scripts/Makefile.build:460: recipe for target 'drivers/net/ethernet/built-in.o' failed
2763make[3]: *** [drivers/net/ethernet/built-in.o] Error 1
2764

Which is quite an odd failure. (So I'm Ccing our testing people to ask
for help).

This looks vaguely related:
