Please give my fix a try:

On x86 as well seeing couple of issues related to same, not on defconfig
though..

ERROR: modpost: "lynx_pcs_destroy"
[drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/stmmac.ko] undefined!
ERROR: modpost: "lynx_pcs_destroy"

make[1]: *** [scripts/Makefile.modpost:136: Module.symvers] Error 1
make: *** [Makefile:1984: modpost] Error 2

Among above issues stmmac issue would be resolved with above mentioned fix.

I sent out my version of the build fixups for altera and stmmac now.
Thanks, tested with next-20230608 and it builds fine.
