--- Comment #3 from Sudip <sudipm.mukherjee at gmail dot com> --- Ohhh.. yes. I updated binutils also to "tag: binutils-2_37". For the kernel source this was seen while I was testing the build for v5.4.142- rc2 and I have checked there has been no kernel code change which can cause this. I am now reverting back to old binutils and testing again.
