The kernel you are building is too big.

An ordinary multi_v7_defconfig+thumb2 has

(10240K kernel code, 2232K rwdata, 5344K rodata, 2048K init, 441K bss,
144040K reserved, 65536K cma-reserved, 3340512K highmem)

whereas your kernel has

(23552K kernel code, 9970K rwdata, 16736K rodata, 3072K init, 4849K
bss, 189072K reserved, 65536K cma-reserved, 2293756K highmem)

and so the kernel text section is too large to resolve relative branches.

Which config are you building?
