I do not know the cause of the problem reported by the 0-day bot, but
if the problem happens in the following line,

ifeq ($(CONFIG_X86_32),y)
LDFLAGS += $(call ld-option, -pie) $(call ld-option, --no-dynamic-linker)
else



Does the following solve the issue?    (adding $(LDFLAGS))

ld-option = $(call try-run,\
        $(CC) $(KBUILD_CPPFLAGS) $(CC_OPTION_CFLAGS) -x c /dev/null -c
-o "$$TMPO"; \
        $(LD) $(LDFLAGS) $(1) "$$TMPO" -o "$$TMP",$(1),$(2))
