Looks like I spoke too soon:

https://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/main/builders/nightly-x86/builds/132/steps/BuildImages_1/logs/stdio

which seems to be a race over the kernel source directory. I'm guessing
the file in question is a temporary build artefact of lttng-modules
which was running at the same time? Any way we can avoid temp files in
the kernel source dir?
