What kernel bbclass are you using to build your kernel?
Please note that a very similar logic was replicated on
the kernel-yocto.bbclass do_kernel_checkout function
so it will be good to test with and without the kernel-yocto.bbclass.
https://git.yoctoproject.org/poky/tree/meta/classes-recipe/kernel-yocto.bbclass#n376
I recently came across this problem in a change that I ended up having to
revert.
