make htmldocs is rather slow:

  $ time make -j56 htmldocs
  ...
  make -j56 htmldocs  2355.99s user 141.33s system 158% cpu 26:14.86 total

and produces a bunch of warnings with current mainline it seems.  That
compares unfavourably with allmodconfig on this system:

  $ time make -j56 allmodconfig
  ...
  make -j56 allmodconfig  5.31s user 1.93s system 146% cpu 4.931 total
  $ time make -j56
  ...
  make -j56  53468.11s user 4387.30s system 5084% cpu 18:57.77 total

and seems rather more likely to flag something for me.
