commit b160628e9ebcdc85d0db9d7f423c26b3c7c179d0 upstream. It happens quite often that people use the wrong compiler to build the kernel: make ARCH=parisc -> builds the 32-bit kernel make ARCH=parisc64 -> builds the 64-bit kernel This patch adds a sanity check which errors out with an instruction how use the correct ARCH= option.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
