In case you are compiling it as a module then following things need to be done.
First, create a Makefile (in the same directory as containing the
source) and put some thing like
"obj-m += test.o"
where test.c is your source code and obj-m compiles it as a module.
Now you need to type the make command as
make -C <your_linux_source_code_directory> SUBDIRS=$PWD modules

eg:
I put my linux kernel source code in /linux-2.6.11.7 so the command was:
make -C  /linux-2.6.11.7 SUBDIRS=$PWD modules

Hope it helps,
Rajat.
