Research direction
Start with Makefile:1349 and reproduce the reported modules_install command using the Raspberry Pi kernel building and configuring documentation as context. Compare the Debian, Ubuntu, and Raspbian results; the issue is done when modules_install completes without the reported ln target error or the cause is documented.

Description
I try to complile kernel by this manual

addind support tca8418 keyboard driver by this manual
https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/linux/kernel/configuring.md

Try it on fresh Ubuntu 18.04, Debian 4.9.110 and directly on RPI0W with latest upgraded Raspian.
After command
sudo env PATH=$PATH make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- INSTALL_MOD_PATH=mnt/ext4 modules_install on Debian and Ubuntu or sudo make modules_install on Raspian I get the same error message
ln: target 'support+/source' is not a directory
Makefile:1349: recipe for target '_modinst_' failed
make: *** [_modinst_] Error 1
Any suggestions please.
