Compiling hardened-sources-2.6.20 ends with a compile/linking-error on vmlinux

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.zcat /proc/config.gz > .config
2.make oldconfig
3.make

Actual Results:  
  LD      vmlinux
arch/i386/mm/built-in.o: In function `do_page_fault':
(.text+0xa2d): undefined reference to `__flush_tlb_one'
make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1


Expected Results:  
No compile/linking-error.

Hi,

just upgraded to hardened-sources-2.6.20 and got following error on compiling the kernel:
