Error in compiling the linux kernel

[Reddy Suneel-ASR125]

Hi
 
I applied the gcov patch for Linux 2.6 and I try to compile it.  I am
getting the following error.
 
arch/ppc/kernel/built-in.o(.text+0x8f8): In function `_switch':
arch/ppc/kernel/entry.S: relocation truncated to fit: R_PPC_REL14
against symbol `do_syscall_trace' defined in .text section in
arch/ppc/kernel/built-in.o
make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1
 
Linux kernel is cpmpiled for MPC8548 Powerpc processor.
 
Can anybody knows the root cause of this problem?
