When I tried using this compiler in buildroot,
gcc-linaro-5.3.1-2016.05-x86_64_arm-linux-gnueabi.tar.xz
Buildroot complained that it is for VFP, not NEON.
Plus the kernel headers are 4.0 and V5 kernel is 4.4.
For optimal v5 it wants a 'hf' compiler.
I switched over to the buildroot recommended compiler (Arm ARM 2018.08) and have not encountered any issues so far.

We have buildroot working now. The important bit is to pick EABI and not EABIhf, and NEON+VFP4. If you don't do that the precompiled AW supplied libraries won't work.
Buildroot allows fine level control over what ends up in the image. Our new image is 20MB vs the 3.3GB from debian. There is nothing wrong with debian, it just installs thousands of packages. We want a minimal system without Xserver.
BTW, we finally ended up using the compiler recommend by Lindenis for building the SDK. Using any other compilers gave us trouble with linking. So this may not be optimal, but it is good enough.
