The kernel does not link an AMD64:
LD vmlinux
drivers/built-in.o(.text+0x7f53): In function `fbcon_set_font':
: undefined reference to `crc32_le'

This is the code snipped from drivers/video/console/fbcon.c (line 2303):

/* Since linux has a nice crc32 function use it for counting font
* checksums. */
csum = crc32(0, new_data, size);

After switching on CONFIG_CRC32, the kernel is linked correctly.
