I can't reproduce that with your config ontop of

commit 0b58e108042b0ed28a71cd7edf5175999955b233 (HEAD, tag: refs/tags/next-20240703, refs/remotes/linux-next/master)

Add linux-next specific files for 20240703

Signed-off-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

$ make ARCH=i386 -j128 CC=gcc HOSTCC=gcc
...

OBJCOPY arch/x86/boot/setup.bin
BUILD arch/x86/boot/bzImage
Kernel: arch/x86/boot/bzImage is ready (#1)

Something's missing.

Did you do

$ git clean -dqfx

before building?

Note that that cmd will clear *everything* so you better check your local tree
before you run it:

$ git status

and then

$ git clean -dqfx

after having saved the files which you still need.

HTH.
