As others said, that's ok.

No need for the last step. If you do a new build, my usual cleanup
sequence is
rm -rf /usr/obj/*
cd /usr/src
find . -type l -name obj -execdir rm {} \;
make obj
Starting from that, you can build again (special pre-build steps if
needed, build/install/reboot new kernel, make build, perhaps make
release).
Kind regards,
Hannah.
