Hello Yamada-san,

Appreciate your willingness to support. Some findings below.

Unfortunately, the problem remains after backporting the above commit.

After some more bisecting and some more trial-and-error, I finally came
up with a reproduction scenario against vanilla. It also shows that
after reverting 7ce7e984ab2b21 ("kbuild: rename
cmd_{bzip2,lzma,lzo,lz4,xzkern,zstd22}"), the problem goes away.

It takes <30 seconds to reproduce the issue on my machine (on 2nd run).

In order to make the test self-sufficient, it also clones the Linux
sources (only during 1st run, with --depth 1, for minimal footprint),
hence ~1.8 GB free space is required in /tmp .

The repro.sh script:
 => https://gist.github.com/erosca/1372fdc24126dc98031444613450c494

Output against vanilla on 1st run (always OK, matches real-life case):
 => https://gist.github.com/erosca/0f5b8e0a00a256d80f0c8a6364d81568

Output against vanilla on 2nd/Nth run (NOK: Argument list too long):
 => https://gist.github.com/erosca/e5c2c6479cc32244cc38d308deea4cf5

Output against vanilla + revert_of_7ce7e984ab2b2 on Nth run (always OK):
 => https://gist.github.com/erosca/57e114f92ea20132e19fc7f5a46e7c65

Would it be possible to get your thoughts on the above?
