I was trying 2.17 and up, and it works from 3.1 as we ditched the kernel 
compilation.
On 2.17 and 3.0:

    HOSTLD  scripts/dtc/dtc
  /usr/bin/ld: scripts/dtc/dtc-parser.tab.o:(.bss+0x20): multiple definition of 
`yylloc'; scripts/dtc/dtc-lexer.lex.o:(.bss+0x0): first defined here
  collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
  make[1]: *** [scripts/Makefile.host:99: scripts/dtc/dtc] Error 1
  make: *** [Makefile:1281: scripts_dtc] Error 2
  Error: Process completed with exit code 2.

    HOSTLD  arch/x86/tools/relocs
  /usr/bin/ld: arch/x86/tools/relocs_64.o:(.bss+0x0): multiple definition of 
`per_cpu_load_addr'; arch/x86/tools/relocs_32.o:(.bss+0x0): first defined here
  collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
  make[1]: *** [scripts/Makefile.host:127: arch/x86/tools/relocs] Error 1

A quick search online resulted, in using an older compiler, or applying a 
kernel patch :)

I guess we could apply the patches needed for the specific versions, but maybe 
you have better ideas?
