CONFIG_BANNER and this compilation failure have nothing to do with each
other.
The problem we have is that start.S may get compiled before
generated/compile.h is generated. This is because there is no
Make dependency from start.S to generated/compile.h. Look at
common/Makefile. There we have:
$(obj)/version.o: include/generated/compile.h
This makes sure that generated/compile.h is generated before compiling
version.c.
In arch/mips/boot/Makefile we would need:
$(obj)/start.o: include/generated/compile.h
The problem is that we do not have the rule to generate compile.h
available in this Makefile, so we would also need:
chk_compile.h = :
quiet_chk_compile.h = echo ' CHK $@'
silent_chk_compile.h = :
include/generated/compile.h: FORCE
@$($(quiet)chk_compile.h)
$(Q)$(CONFIG_SHELL) $(srctree)/scripts/mkcompile_h $@ \
"$(UTS_MACHINE)" "$(CC) $(KBUILD_CFLAGS)"
in arch/mips/boot/Makefile.
