So I found the issue (it was a PIBKAC issue :/) I was using sudo to try and build the kernel (this was due to a messed up setup where the whole kernel src tree ended up being written by root). When copy-pasting my command here, I missed copying the sudo part and that was precisely the reason for the error. When invoking sudo, I think the current shells environment variables are not copied (probably due to security reasons) and that's why it was not picking up the toolchain paths. Once I fixed the permissions on the source tree and invoke make as regular user, it started working. Sorry about the noise, I should've figured this out earlier.
