Build results:
	total: 154 pass: 152 fail: 2
Failed builds:
	riscv32:allmodconfig
	riscv:allmodconfig
Qemu test results:
	total: 462 pass: 462 fail: 0

Build failure:

cc1: error: '8944' is not a valid offset in '-mstack-protector-guard-offset='
make[2]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:271: init/main.o] Error 1

The build failure is not new and seen since v5.12 (including mainline).
It happens if both STACKPROTECTOR_PER_TASK and GCC_PLUGIN_RANDSTRUCT
are enabled at the same time (previously I had disabled
GCC_PLUGIN_RANDSTRUCT in all of my my test builds). See
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-riscv/patch/20210706162621.940924-1-linux@xxxxxxxxxxxx/
for details.
