Hello, at the moment I strongly recommend to build mainline kenel on Tumbleweed. Some toolchain features that are required by the recent kernels are not yet available on Leap.
That is one potential source of errors. Broken source or configuration is another. If you do not want to deal with git you can also branch from the Kernel:stable:Backport project in OBS and only change the config. Note however that the config changes as the kernel is updated so such frankenpackage will break soon.
