This folder is created when you compile and install your own kernel. But
I don't think you realy need it. I think hte problem may be that the
make file for the driver is looking at the make file in the kernel
source, and finding the line:
EXTRAVERSION = -6mdkcustom
if you change this to:
EXTRAVERSION = -6mdk
your driver will probably try to put the finished module in the correct
directory. You will want to make sure and change it back before
compiling your own kernel.
