Replying to vushakov:
Your kernel doesn't provide
compiler-gcc6.hheader. Not much we can do about that.
Thanks, I didn't realize the headers were kernel-generated. Found this workaround suggestion https://stackoverflow.com/questions/29925513/compile-a-linux-2-6-kernel-module-with-newer-compiler but I guess it could be risky.
