Linaro's CI also reports an issue with this patch with the remoteproc
drivers that were freshly merged in Linus' tree for 5.7-rc1 (seen with a
simple arm allyesconfig build):

drivers/rpmsg/mtk_rpmsg.c:68:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'kfree' [-Werror,-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
drivers/rpmsg/mtk_rpmsg.c:93:9: error: implicit declaration of function 'kzalloc' [-Werror,-Wimplicit-function-declaration]

It seems like this series shouldn't be in -next until after 5.7-rc1 (or
rebased on Linus' tree if it is intended for the merge window).

Cheers,
