I couldn't figure out how to use the compiler from the OpenBMC tree.
The biggest issue is that it has "openbmc" in its name and Linux build
was getting confused by it. I gave up on that approach and found how
to install the right cross compiler in our environment. That worked
well. Thanks for the hints!

Ack.

I'll send a PATCH v3 now.
