Looks like this is probably the problem:

                 if test "$ac_cv_linux_config_modversions" =3D "xno"; =
then
                   AC_MSG_WARN([Cannot determine sys_call_table status.
assuming it's exported])
                   ac_cv_linux_exports_sys_call_table=3Dyes
                 else
                   LINUX_EXPORTS_SYS_CALL_TABLE
                   LINUX_EXPORTS_KALLSYMS_SYMBOL
                   LINUX_EXPORTS_KALLSYMS_ADDRESS
                   LINUX_EXPORTS_INIT_MM
                   if test "x$ac_cv_linux_exports_sys_call_table" =3D
"xno"; then

It's missing the "x" in front of the
"x$ac_cv_linux_config_modversions"...=20
