I took one i386 config file and tested with it:
linux-next 2022-0317 - fails as above
           2022-0216 - fails as above
           2022-0315 - builds successfully

I have 5 i386 configs that fail in this manner and 2 x86_64 configs that fail.
(all from mmotm)

I am attaching the first failing i386 config file but will happily provide
the rest of them if anyone wants them.
(just use 'make oldconfig' and press Enter at any kconfig prompts.)
