Thank you for reviewing.
The reason of this issue is because some objects are compiled with -EL
and some objects are compiled with -EB to cause endianness mismatch
issue.
It happened because AFLAGS and LDFLAGS is not passed correctly. I will
send the 2nd verson patch to fix this issue.

Yes, allnoconfig is fine after applying these fixes.
