I ran make -C . M=drivers/staging/greybus

I got a three line output saying:
make: Entering directory '/work/linux'
  MODPOST drivers/staging/greybus//Module.symvers
make: Leaving directory '/work/linux'

I just tried rebuilding the kernel with CONFIG_GREYBUS=m, and now I can
see what you are talking about. Why weren't these errors reported when I
ran the previous make command? Does that too check for the config
variables even when I specifically asked it to build a module?

Also sorry about this. I will be more careful next time.
