The kernel test robot reported multiple linkage problems like this:
hppa64-linux-ld: init/main.o(.init.text+0x56c): cannot reach printk
init/main.o: in function `unknown_bootoption':
(.init.text+0x56c): relocation truncated to fit: R_PARISC_PCREL22F against
symbol `printk' defined in .text.unlikely section in kernel/printk/printk.o
There are two ways to solve it:
a) Enable the -mlong-call compiler option (CONFIG_MLONGCALLS),
b) Add long branch stub support in 64-bit linker.
While b) is the long-term solution, this patch works around the issue by
automatically enabling the CONFIG_MLONGCALLS option when
CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST is set, which indicates that a non-production kernel
(e.g. 0-day kernel) is built.

If you configure the kernel to include many drivers built-in instead
