But 2bc42bfba9b247abd was to address my complaint that we need to specify
CROSS_COMPILE prefix on cmdline.

When doing the needful Alexey found the "noise" when a prefix didn't exist, 
which
913ab9780fc0212 address.

So these seem like orthogonal to me - that is unless I got the wired crossed 
somewhow.

I would happily do that on next rc if that is infact needed.

I just noticed this patch is queued on top of v5.2-rc4.
(2bc42bfba9b247abd)

This 'side note' is no longer needed or reproducible
because -rc4 contains my fix-up (913ab9780fc0212).

I do not know if the ARC maitainer is happy to rebase.

Just for your information.

I wish we could just set CROSS_COMPILE and ARCH in .config.  That would
make everyones life compile testing on multiple architectures so much
easier.

Ooops, indeed that should have been added, but instead I just
mentioned your earlier email in the mailing list.

Care to add yourself on patch application?

Not a big deal but I'd propose we add "Suggested-by: vgupta" since that is where
it came from.

@Masahiro san I suppose you are OK with this, so perhaps an Ack etc would be 
nice
to have.

OK, confirmed.

Probably using 'which' is a bad idea
since this is not portable.

I will send a fix-up patch soon.

Well on Ubuntu 18.04 indeed which doesn't show anything
but on my build-server with CentOS 7 I'm getting mentioned verbose output:

Oh really?

masahiro@pug:~$ which arc-linux-gcc
/home/masahiro/tools/arc/bin/arc-linux-gcc
masahiro@pug:~$ which dummy-linux-gcc
masahiro@pug:~$ echo $?
1


When 'which' cannot find the given command,
it does not print anything to stderr.

Does it work differently on your machine?
