 Probably, you didn't select CONFIG_MODVERSIONS in your kernel
.config.

 These 'deprecated' warnings just mean that this external project
isn't up to speed with how things should be done now.  Probably
nothing to worry about, I guess the extraneous spaces before "st'"
crept in when you reformatted this for the mail.

 This is probably caused by the missing MODVERSIONS.  It's really an
option for people who supply binaries of the modules (e.g. distros),
but it seems as if the open-iscsi build process has been written to
require it.  You might even need CONFIG_MODULE_SRCVERSION_ALL.

 Alternatively, you are trying to build against a clean kernel
source tree, or even a kernel configured not to support modules.  The
file scripts/mod/modpost is actually a binary (from modpost.c) which
gets built during the kernel build.
