Just to separate the problems:
Building a cross-compiling toolchain is hard. Totally understand that. Android [0] and Linaro [1] both provide pre-made pre-tested builds you can just pull and use. I recommend using them.
Building the kernel itself. As mdwrigh2 pointed out, this is actually pretty easy. Also the kernelnewbies community is here to help!

- SixSigma 13y agoA cross compiling toolchain is fairly easy. You should try plan9's. What is hard is coping with the layer upon layer of the Linux toolchains where the solution is considered by many to be worse than the original problem.
