msm_fb kernel error - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I'm trying to compile my first kernel, more specifically for nethunter on cm13. I've grabbed (what I think is) the source files from github: https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_kernel_htc_m7/tree/cm-13.0
I've then applied the mac802 patch from the nethuner wiki and have just managed to place the HID patch. When i tried to compile I get the below error, I had a quick Google and it seems to be related to video drivers which seem pretty important to me. Anyone have any ideas how to fix please or point me in the right direction? I've tried searching for the specific warning: info may blah blah blah but that didn't retrieve anything useful.
Code:
drivers/video/msm/msm_fb.c: In function 'msm_fb_commit_thread':
drivers/video/msm/msm_fb.c:2637: warning: 'info' may be used uninitialized in this function
error, forbidden warning: msm_fb.c:2637
scripts/Makefile.build:307: recipe for target 'drivers/video/msm/msm_fb.o' failed

scripts/Makefile.build:443: recipe for target 'drivers/video' failed
make[1]: *** [drivers/video] Error 2
Makefile:951: recipe for target 'drivers' failed
make: *** [drivers] Error 2
EDIT: Worked it out, 'info' was a variable that wasn't being assigned in the source.

Help Inserting Multi Touch Patch Into Kernel

I've combined different features from Cyanogen's and JesusFreke's kernel .config files (from /proc/config.gz) into a git clone of android-msm-2.6.29 from android.git.kernel.org. The reason is that for some reason suid does not work properly when running debian as a non-root user on my G1 with Cyanogen's kernels. However it does with JesusFreke's. While I was able to fix that problem, and keep Cyanogens optimizations, I also unfortunately lost Cyanogen's kernel support for multitouch. I assumed this is because he is using a patched version of the synaptics touchpad driver, whereas I was not. So, I tried to download this Kernel Patch (http://web.mit.edu/~luke_h/www/MultiTouchV4/src/KernelPatch.zip), which is what I believe Cyanogen used. However, after replacing the target file with the included one, the make fails with the following:
...

Any thoughts on where to proceed from here?

[Q] Error in "make clean"

Doing a make clean in any sourcebase (official samsung or voodoo) produces the following error:
scripts/Makefile.clean:17: /home/kernel/I9000-kernel/Samsung_JPM/Kernel/drivers/fsr/Makefile: No such file or directory
make[2]: *** No rule to make target `/home/kernel/I9000-kernel/Samsung_JPM/Kernel/drivers/fsr/Makefile'. Stop.
make[1]: *** [drivers/fsr] Error 2
make: *** [_clean_drivers] Error 2
I can see that there is no fsr directory in the tree. What's wrong with this?

those are closed source modules. Create the fsr and rfs directories and put an empty Makefile there.
OK, that worked, thanks. When you make and flash a zImage, you only flash the kernel and not the modules, right?
How can you flash a module?

You need to add current directory address at last drivers/net/ethernet/msm/rndis_ipa_trace.h

Having issues compiling kernel...

I have built kernels before, but this one just spits out error after error after error.. very annoying and nothing I found seems to help.
Currently stuck with these errors and don't know how to solve them, any help is appreciated:

Makefile:146: recipe for target 'sub-make' failed
make: *** [sub-make] Error 2
The missing perflog.h file is a crucial component for the build process.
To resolve, locate the perflog.h:
find /path/to/starting/directory -type f -name "perflog.h"
Replace /path/to/starting/directory with the appropriate root directory to begin the search. Once located, transfer the file to the expected destination.
If the file is absent, examine the kernel source code repository. If the file is accessible, download it and place it in the required location.
The second issue pertains to a missing rule needed to create the target '/home/dpi/qb5_8814/workspace/P4_1716/buildscript/tools/pil_splitter.py'. This indicates that the build process anticipates a rule to generate the target file, but the rule is not specified in the Makefile.
To resolve this issue, take the following steps:
- Determine whether the target file (pil_splitter.py) exists within your system. If not, obtain it from the kernel source code repository.
- If the file is present, verify that the Makefile includes the appropriate rule for constructing the target file. It may be necessary to add or modify the rule in the Makefile, ensuring it references the correct dependencies and commands.
