What do you mean exactly?
Looking at the upstream Makefile:
ifdef KERNDIR
KERNEL_SOURCES := $(KERNDIR)
else
KERNEL_SOURCES := /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build
endif
and to debian/rules:
$(MAKE) KERNDIR=$(KSRC)
So the path to the kernel source is set correctly.
Moreover, it is possible to build the module against a kernel which
isn't currently running does not work, at least for debian kernels
(tested). I don't have time to test for non-debian kernels, but I don't
see why it won't works.
Please provide me a log of the build.
Meanwhile as it works for debian kernels, I am decreasing the severity
to normal.

It is fixed in the same time as #379762.
