The 2.3.64 version means you are using the in-kernel Lustre client (confirmed by the waning messages about "staging"), and not the 2.7.x version from the Lustre master branch.
It looks like Ubuntu is building the in-kernel client, and your modules are not being loaded.

We have a few webservers running Debian that need to access the storage. I followed the procedure given by Thomas Stibor about Ubuntu 14 last year. I could successfully compile the binaries and modules after some digging. He also left an already compiled lustre 2.7.63 and modules for kernel 3.16.0-4 online. If I install his binaries, it works well. If I install the one generated by the procedure, the modules don't load and a weird thing happen.

Why the shown version of the module is 2.3 ? I tried to compile from the 2.7 branch but the 2.7.0 version doesn't compile with kernel 3.16, as suggested in LU-7042 I probably miss something. Sorry I'm not familiar with compilers (usually the ./configure && make && make install works or warns you about missing dependencies and i don't go farther).
