Greg, I got one error with the ld command. However, by using "make SUBDIRS=drivers/block" I was able to get the driver to compile. However, "make drivers/block/cciss.o" does not work. This may be due to not having some of the other block modules compile, I'm not sure. I am going to do a regular build as well so that I can compare the object files I get from each method. However, the size seems to match so I think this worked. Thank you very much for all your help.
