The error seems to be triggered during building initramfs. It is build in
/boot. If you have much drivers used the initramfs can use more than 168M
for its compression via zstd. If you can't enlarge /dev/nvme0n1p2 you
could remove older kernels installed and/or limit the drivers
used.
Check if you have in /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf
MODULES=dep
BUSYBOX=auto
In case they are not, change them and rebuild with
update-initramfs -u -k all
