It will compile in storm. It appears you're missing some header files to
complete the compile. the module is looking for specific header files in the
usual place and isn't finding them.
To get around this, first make sure you have all the proper linux source and
header files installed, then just copy all the header files from your Linux
source directory into /usr/include/linux as follows:
cp /usr/src/linux/include/linux/*.* /usr/include/linux
Then try compiling again. You may still get errors about include files, it
just means you'll have to hunt for them (locate headerfilename.h) and copy
them to /usr/include/linux accordingly.

NEVER EVER comment out refs to the header files. those are required by the
source program or they wouldn't be there.
