arch/powerpc/kernel/head_32.S:1106: Error: missing operand

Dear Linux folks,


Building the configuration created with `make tinyconfig` on the Power 8 system IBM S822LC with Ubuntu 18.04 fails with the error below.

```
$ git describe --dirty
v4.17-rc6-296-gbc2dbc5420e8
$ git log --oneline -1
bc2dbc5420e8 (HEAD -> master, origin/master, origin/HEAD) Merge branch 'akpm' (patches from Andrew)
$ make tinyconfig
$ make -j120
[â]
AS arch/powerpc/kernel/head_32.o
arch/powerpc/kernel/head_32.S: Assembler messages:
arch/powerpc/kernel/head_32.S:1106: Error: missing operand
scripts/Makefile.build:413: recipe for target 'arch/powerpc/kernel/head_32.o' failed
make[1]: *** [arch/powerpc/kernel/head_32.o] Error 1
[â]
```

Is this expected? *ppc64_defconfig* and *ppc64e_defconfig* build fine.


Kind regards,

Paul
