Comment 24 for bug 1475166

Hi Adi,

1)
We have met a similar problem when we build 3.16 kernel like your C#18&22, and there goes a solution by Johnny.
You have to modify scripts/package/builddeb in linux kernel source as something like:
...
ppc*)
                debarch=$(grep -q CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN=y $KCONFIG_CONFIG && echo ppc64el || echo powerpc) ;;
...
So you can build ppc64el kernel instead of powerpc after fixing the builddeb script.

2)
We start to bisect v3.16 and v3.19, and consistent I/O error happens during copying files to RAID volumns in v3.19 but not in v3.16. It seems take lots of time to finish the bisection so we will keep status post.
