problemas al compilar el kernel de Linux desde la fuente

Question

Estoy intentando compilar un kernel desde el árbol fuente que se encuentra enhttps://github.com/fio-prf/em, y recibo el siguiente error cuando ejecuto make:

make[1]: Nothing to be done for `all'.
make[1]: Nothing to be done for `relocs'.
  CHK     include/linux/version.h
  CHK     include/generated/utsrelease.h
  CALL    scripts/checksyscalls.sh
  CHK     include/generated/compile.h
make[3]: `arch/x86/realmode/rm/realmode.bin' is up to date.
  CC [M]  drivers/md/persistent-data/dm-btree.o
In file included from drivers/md/persistent-data/dm-btree.c:7:

make[2]: *** [drivers/md/persistent-data] Error 2
make[1]: *** [drivers/md] Error 2

Descargué el árbol de fuentes /usr/src/en mi máquina (ejecutando CentOS 6.4). Nunca había hecho esto antes y no estoy muy familiarizado con C, no estoy seguro de cuál es el problema.

Generally here are the steps.
Download from kernel.org
https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.x/linux-3.10.7.tar.xz
Extract the kernel
cd /usr/src/linux-3.10.7 (or whatever)
make localmodconfig
if you need to change the default settings "make menuconfig"
make bzImage && make modules && make modules_install && make install
