Anything received after that time might be too late.

Just an initial report.

mips builds are failing with the error:
arch/mips/alchemy/common/dbdma.c:33:10: fatal error:
linux/dma-map-ops.h: No such file or directory
33 | #include <linux/dma-map-ops.h> /* for dma_default_coherent */
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

arm build has failed with:
arch/arm/mach-ep93xx/timer-ep93xx.c:12:10: fatal error: platform.h: No
such file or directory
12 | #include "platform.h"
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~


I'd guess that the mips dma patch which fail to build in v5.10.y
(and by extension in all older kernels) have been applied to
those older kernels. AFAICs the problem now affects all releases
form v4.14.y to v5.10.y.
