That is normal for any recent kernel, slhc.o gets copied twice.

This is not an XFS problem, I don't think it is even a kernel problem,
your version of cp is objecting to a perfectly valid command.  Either
you have 'cp' aliased to some command that does extra checking or a new
version of cp is doing too much checking.  Verify that you are using
the correct cp.  If you are, log a bug report with the fileutils
maintainer, that command is valid.
