The solution here would be to install the headers for your new kernel in order to use the updated types. That is you should run make headers_install. $ make help | grep headers headers_install - Install sanitised kernel headers to INSTALL_HDR_PATH You can use INSTALL_HDR_PATH to put the headers in a custom directory and tell gcc to also include this directory when searching for include headers.
