That one might be tricky (or simple if someone knows what is wrong).

Fixed in v3.5-rc1:

commit 74f077d2a7651409c44bb323471f219a4b0d2aab
Author: Jiri Slaby <jslaby@xxxxxxx>
Date: Mon Apr 2 13:40:17 2012 +0200

cris: posix_types.h, include asm-generic/posix_types.h

It does fix above error, but then there is another error:

cris: Remove old legacy "-traditional" flag from arch-v10/lib/Makefile


Great, thanks for tracking this down.

With both patches applied, we are almost there. Next error:

kernel/built-in.o: In function `core_kernel_data':
(.text+0x12e38): undefined reference to `_sdata'
make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1

This has been fixed with commit 473e162e (CRIS: Add _sdata to vmlinux.lds.S).

So, in summary, we have

473e162e CRIS: Add _sdata to vmlinux.lds.S

473e162e also fixes the cris builds in 3.0, so it might make sense to apply it there as well,
at least if 3.0 has some lifetime left.
