This is happening for us when we try to build ARM(64) cross-builds on
Ubuntu 16.04. Yes, I know, that's a fairly old distro. At the same
time it isn't ancient (extended support is still available), and it
*should* be possible to build the 5.15 kernel on it.

And yes, some of our build machines have been updated to Ubuntu 20.04,
but not all of them. We'll get there eventually. For now this error is
posing a bit of a problem.

Yes, please. I've been looking at failed nightly builds since September
12. It's only a forward looking build (so nothing mission critical),
but it would still be nice to have it build again.
