Hi folks,

I'm attempting to follow this guide to build a Kata Containers kernel: 
https://github.com/kata-containers/packaging/tree/master/kernel#build-kata-containers-kernel

My host environment is Clear Linux version: 31640. I am on this commit:
1.10.0-alpha0-35-g5c636a2

But I am getting the following error when attempting to build the
kernel:
$ ./build-kernel.sh build
INFO: Clone config and patches
INFO: Config version: 55
INFO: Kernel version: 4.19.75
  CALL    scripts/checksyscalls.sh
  DESCEND  objtool

  AS      arch/x86/boot/compressed/head_64.o

make[1]: *** [arch/x86/boot/Makefile:112:
arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux] Error 2
make: *** [arch/x86/Makefile:292: bzImage] Error 2

Is this a known issue?

Thanks,
Geoffroy
