I think, in your case it will help to set an env var to some file system with
more space than one normally has below /tmp, for example:

# mkdir /usr/tmp
# TMPDIR=/usr/tmp export TMPDIR

AT least, this helped me for a tiny root file system to make an image off. 

But if you specify in the command mkfs(8) that your file system should have
plenty space for additional thinks, it will create there in TMPDIR some swap
file with giga o even terra bytes.

There is something broken with mkimg(1).

Some time ago, in March 2017 on r314251, this was all working fine and w/o any
TMPDIR.
