make olddefconfig

make -j$(nproc)

Essentially above these two steps produced by running

makepkg -s

As you built the kernel without using the PKGBUILD you did not apply sphinx-workaround.patch included in https://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/commit/trunk?h=packages/linux&id=08a7fa88eaa91ef8b0e1f71b496d4097c3702e8d

Nope I do use the PKGBUILD ...so exception ...do that all the time ...but this time it is showing this ..standard building procedure. I believe some update bumped on to unreleased version of python i.e 3.8 ...which might create trouble.

What was the exact makepkg command you used?
Edit:
Attached build.log xz compressed from https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/ build of 5.6.3-arch1-1 building without issue.
