I'm having the exact same issue when just modifying a custom linux recipie which is essntially the same as the one provided but referencing 5.15 after transposing recipies from dunfell to kirkstone. The builds without any devtool modify sources work fine but the second I am working with a devtool'd linux it produces that error. So the current best workflow seems to be to make changes in a branch on the remote repository which will require forking the kernel sources and then pointing the branch at the branch created on the fork of the repository.

In my naieve attempts to troubleshoot this I tried changing SRCREV to the same branch name I was referencing and changed the error message to the new format where it changes the raise line to the following it seemed to be using SRCREV for ud.unresolvedrev[name], that doesn't seem correct to me as if I changed the SRCREV to "5.15" (different from the git branch) it would output "5.15". Not sure if this is expected.

raise bb.fetch2.FetchError("Recipe uses a floating tag/branch '%s' for repo '%s' without a fixed SRCREV yet doesn't call bb.fetch2.get_srcrev() (use SRCPV in PV for OE)." % (ud.unresolvedrev[name], ud.host+ud.path))
