You can see build issues on patchwork:
Overall a helpful response, but that part you got wrong.
Do not point people to patchwork checks, please. It will only encourage people to post stuff they haven't build tested themselves.
It's documented:

Did you read my reply? I specifically included this link so that you won't tell me I'm encouraging people to build test their patches by posting to netdev.
Yeah, I noticed the link after, but I think my point stands.
You show someone the patchwork checks and then at the end of the "also" section put a link on how it's not okay to abuse it. Not a clear enough instruction.
*never* point people to the patchwork checks, *please*
