Though I directly commented in bugzilla as well, I will just repeat that 
here because I noticed that emails to dev@ are automatically being added 
to bug history (and reverse is not true).

You have made a very tiny mistake of '_' in place of the correct '-':

from:
  make install T=arm64_thunderx_linuxapp_gcc
to:
  make install T=arm64-thunderx-linuxapp-gcc

Please check, the files available in config are:
defconfig_arm64-armv8a-linuxapp-clang
defconfig_arm64-armv8a-linuxapp-gcc
defconfig_arm64-dpaa2-linuxapp-gcc
defconfig_arm64-dpaa-linuxapp-gcc
defconfig_arm64-stingray-linuxapp-gcc
defconfig_arm64-thunderx-linuxapp-gcc
defconfig_arm64-xgene1-linuxapp-gcc

And T=<should be above string, without the 'defconfig_'>

This works fine for me:

$ make T=arm64-thunderx-linuxapp-gcc install
Configuration done using arm64-thunderx-linuxapp-gcc
== Build lib
== Build lib/librte_compat
...

Now, as per bug process, who would set this to resolve/Invalid?
