Oops, missed another one on second glance of my build logs:

3.

arch/x86/boot/compressed/acpi.c:23:1: warning: unused function '__efi_get_rsdp_addr' [-Wunused-function]
__efi_get_rsdp_addr(unsigned long cfg_tbl_pa, unsigned int cfg_tbl_len)
^
1 warning generated.

This happens when CONFIG_EFI is disabled. This will resolve it:
