multi_v5_defconfig is for ARM v5 processors, and not suitable for R-Car Gen2.
multi_v7_defconfig may work (the kernel image may be too big to boot on ALT,
it's been a while I tried it).

However, there's also shmobile_defconfig, which has all needed options for all
supported Renesas ARM SoCs and boards.

BTW, which config did you use for Koelsch? ALT and Koelsch are very similar,
just changing all R8A7791-related options to R8A7794 should give you a working
kernel.

Good luck!
