I didn't think that arm GENERIC could be directly built on earmv6hf
anyway.  There is other stuff missing...  When I wanted to do that sort
of thing, I actually build the kernel as a v7 kernel that advertises
itself as a v6.  This is what RPI2 does.  Something like this:

----
include "arch/evbarm/conf/GENERIC"

makeoptions     CPUFLAGS="-mcpu=cortex-a7 -mfpu=neon"
----

Is this what you are doing??
