What about removing the temporary directory on failure instead?  E.g.:

diff --git a/kernel/gen_kheaders.sh b/kernel/gen_kheaders.sh
index 473036b43c83..c656b72a3cdc 100755
--- a/kernel/gen_kheaders.sh
+++ b/kernel/gen_kheaders.sh
@@ -61,6 +61,8 @@ echo "  GEN     $tarfile"
 rm -rf $cpio_dir
 mkdir $cpio_dir
 
+trap "rm -rf ${cpio_dir}" EXIT
+
 if [ "$building_out_of_srctree" ]; then
        (
                cd $srctree


Otherwise, I'd suggest to extent this .gitignore patch by also adding

   clean-files += kheaders_data.tar.xz.tmp/

to kernel/Makefile.

Kind regards,
Nicolas
