Same problems as reported with 6.1, but something else happening on Arm (32-bits):

-----8<-----
Error: /builds/linux/arch/arm/boot/dts/qcom/qcom-msm8960-cdp.dts:91.1-10 Label or path pmicintc not found
FATAL ERROR: Syntax error parsing input tree
make[4]: *** [/builds/linux/scripts/Makefile.lib:419: arch/arm/boot/dts/qcom/qcom-msm8960-cdp.dtb] Error 1
make[4]: Target 'arch/arm/boot/dts/qcom/' not remade because of errors.
----->8-----

This is seen with Clang (17 and nightly) and GCC-8.

Bisection here points to:

commit 4fed142bbe3ca920810eba12fe96800cfd094d0c
Author: Dmitry Baryshkov <dmitry.baryshkov@xxxxxxxxxx>
Date: Thu Sep 28 14:02:44 2023 +0300

ARM: dts: qcom: msm8960: fix PMIC node labels
[ Upstream commit a10a09f34eb80b83ca7275e23bf982dae2aa7632 ]

Reverting that commit makes that problem go away.

Reproducer:

tuxmake --runtime podman --target-arch arm --toolchain gcc-8 --kconfig defconfig
