COMPILE_TEST seems to be the cause for this.

+config SERIAL_8250_AIROHA
+ tristate "Airoha UART support"
+ depends on (ARCH_AIROHA || COMPILE_TEST) && OF && SERIAL_8250


Should I send a patch removing this?

No, you should allow COMPILE_TEST to build the code, right? Odd that I
can't build it here for some reason, I guess I need to enable OF on my
test builds...

thanks,

Hi, I confirm the build error and I tried to properly add support for COMPILE_TEST to the code. I did not succeed with that and only got into kernel configurations that broke the compilation in non trivial ways.

While it obviously is not impossible to add support I did not like the path it was going. Thus I opted for the solution of least complexity and removed the COMPILE_TEST option.

A v4 of the patch has been posted.
