I see 680 tags with all of those commands, which matches the number of
tags reported by:

  git ls-remote --tags --refs \
    https://kernel.googlesource.com/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux

Perhaps a silly question, but which tags do you think are missing? Are
you confused that 5.10 and 5.11 do not show up at the end? If so, it's
because they sort byte-wise between 5.1 and 5.2. So they're there, just
not at the end, with "git tag". When sorting by creatordate or
taggerdate, they appear at the beginning (because you chose a descending
sort).
