Bisected. And -
de9d2352a3c9 ("kallsyms: add support for relative offsets in kallsyms address table")
is introducing the message of "kallsyms failure: relative symbol value .... "
and 9b461d6a3ab9 ("scripts/link-vmlinux.sh: force error on kallsyms failure")
is causing the build failure.

Just reverting de9d2352a3c9 is fixing these build failures.

Adding Cc to Andrew, Guenter, Ard and Kees.
