This bug was fixed in the package kpatch - 0.3.2-1ubuntu4.1

---------------
kpatch (0.3.2-1ubuntu4.1) xenial; urgency=medium

  * Use debian/rules to build the kernel (LP: #1578661)
  * During kernel builds, generate output when not in debug mode to
    prevent builders timing out due to the build appearing hung (LP: #1570012)

Title:
  kpatch-build build log file needs to be smaller

Status in kpatch package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in kpatch source package in Xenial:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The .kpatch/build.log file is enormous because it is carrying around
  the entire build log for two kernel builds, when realistically it only
  needs to keep the last build performed.

  There's no reason to hang on to the initial kernel build after it is
  complete, as a) it should normally complete without error, and b) if
  there is a problem, the script will bail out there anyway. The script
  needs the second build output for checking for unresolved symbols, but
  since this build is only touching files modified by the patch, it
  should be much smaller.

  Running the build in non-debug mode cuts down on noise as well, though
  some output is still necessary to avoid timeouts. Adding a function to
  output dots during the kernel builds will take care of timeouts
  without cluttering the screen.
