[CentOS] VirtualBox extensions and the new kernel

I've been running Centos for different purposes in a VirtualBox
environment for quite long now. But the newest kernels miss something so
I can get the VirtualBox Extensions linked in.

I can see in the virtualbox log file that I shall run maken oldconfig
and make, but I get these errors:

# make oldconfig && make prepare
scripts/kconfig/conf --oldconfig Kconfig
#
# configuration written to .config
#
scripts/kconfig/conf --silentoldconfig Kconfig
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `arch/x86/syscalls/syscall_32.tbl',
needed by `arch/x86/syscalls/../include/generated/uapi/asm/unistd_32.h'.
 Stop.
make: *** [archheaders] Error 2

Probably it is something that I misses, but what, I cannot figure out.

I see the problem both in Centos 7.7 and 8
