The s390 gcc plugins related build error reported previously has not really
been fixed; after feedback from the s390 maintainers, suggesting that it
won't get fixed in 4.18, I disabled GCC_PLUGINS for s390 builds. This is
not my preferred solution, but it beats not testing s390:allmodconfig
builds at all.

The sparc32 build error is still:

In file included from
...
from drivers/staging/media/omap4iss/iss_video.c:15:
include/linux/highmem.h: In function 'clear_user_highpage':
include/linux/highmem.h:137:31: error:
passing argument 1 of 'sparc_flush_page_to_ram' from incompatible pointer type

due to a missing declaration of 'struct page', as previously reported.
