I am now pretty sure that CFLAGS = <flag> will override the kernel

CFLAGS = -g and it start giving the same error as yours and when I
added CFLAGS += -g it compile successfully. And also what I saw in
kernel Makefile it first assigning CFLAGS directly by using = and
later all the additions are using +=
And as the 2.6 kernel's module compilation mechanism requires
compilation through kernel Makefile so CFLAGS defined by kernel must
be used in module's Makefile !

So I guess the best way is to use EXTRA_CFLAGS instead of CFLAGS. This
was we would not be tampering with the kernel makefile CFLAGS.
Thanks Fawad.
