Title:
  linux 5.4-rc4 Unable to build simple kernel module

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Cannot build a kernel module, errors in Linux headers using the
  current RC4 (also tried RC3, and daily) mainline kernel packages from
  http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline

  
  Am able to build against a 5.4-rc4 kernel level directly from upstream kernel 
git repo (on a different platform).

  To recreate error:

  Install linux headers, etc from current 5.4 RC.  (used 5.4.0-050400rc4
  dated 10/20 for this test)

  --[/tmp/builderr/Makefile]--

  EXTRA_CFLAGS +=

  obj-m += conftest.o

  -- [EOF] --

  --[/tmp/builderr/conftest.c]--

  #include <linux/module.h>
  void conftest(void)
  {

  }
  MODULE_LICENSE("GPL-2");

  -- [EOF] --

  Command:

  make -C /lib/modules/5.4.0-050400rc4-generic/build M=/tmp/builderr/
  V=2 &> make_err.log

  
  make.log is attached.

  
  Expected output (using above Makefile and conftest.c, performed a build on a 
system with 4.15.0-66 linux packages installed):

  -- [expected output] --

  make -C /lib/modules/4.15.0-66-generic/build/ M=/tmp/builderr
  make: Entering directory '/usr/src/linux-headers-4.15.0-66-generic'
