I was working on an older kernel and so i didn't see this error.
There seem to be a couple of issues here.
First, KBUILD_MODNAME is not defined during the compile of u_ether.c because
it is included from multiple sources. It seems that when there are multiple
sources "modname" is set to a string of all the source names with spaces in
between. So something used in foo and bar looks like: "foo bar". From
scripts/Makefile.lib:
# Note: It's possible that one object gets potentially linked into more
# than one module. In that case KBUILD_MODNAME will be set to foo_bar,
# where foo and bar are the name of the modules.
name-fix = $(subst $(comma),_,$(subst -,_,$1))
basename_flags = -D"KBUILD_BASENAME=KBUILD_STR($(call name-fix,$(basetarget)))"
modname_flags = $(if $(filter 1,$(words $(modname))),\
-D"KBUILD_MODNAME=KBUILD_STR($(call name-fix,$(modname)))")
.
.
.
So, the comment says that the KBUILD_MODNAME should be set to "foo_bar" if
its included from multiple files...however, the modname_flags definition is not
doing that. In fact, if there are multiple sources its simply setting a
NULL modname_flag. This issue is independent of the patchset I posted, and
probably is best fixed separately. A patch which resolves this issue:

The second issue is then that the hash functions that i introduced don't like
these spaces either. So on top of the patch set i posted please add the patch
below. The kernel should then compile. I tested this on the 'linux-next' tree,
which did not boot on the system i was using, but i'm not sure it was related
to this change.
thanks,
