That's fine - most of the time I do notice when code is changing and I
even warn submitters about it.

For that you need to write yourself a script which does:

ARCHES=('i386' 'x86_64')

	...

        for a in "${ARCHES[@]}"
        do
                for cfg in "allnoconfig" "defconfig" "allmodconfig" "allyesconfig"
                do
                        build_kernel $a $cfg
                done
        done

then find a big fat machine at Intel - I don't think that would post as
a particularly hard problem :-) - and run it in tmpfs, on your patchset.

Then you collect build logs and grep them for errors. And for additional
coverage, when you're done with the above configs, you do randconfigs.
That's what I do all the time with patchsets and it catches pretty much
every build error.

Thanks for that - very much appreciated.
