You should always clean up the tree first (`make mrproper`), then do
the build as usual. To speed up build time, you can try copying your
current kernel configuration (can be found either in `/boot/` directory
or in `/proc/config.gz`), then trim it up with `make localmodconfig`.
Make sure that all options needed by your computer are enabled (you
may have to plug all peripherals available on your hand) as well as
options related to kernel subsystem/driver you're hacking. For more
information, see Documentation/admin-guide/quickly-build-trimmed-linux.rst.

Thanks.
