No firmware files generated and lots of unknown symbol warnings #6

Hey, so I am running in to an issue with building from the docker container.

The first issue that might be the cause of the current one I am running in to is after following the steps in the readme, I still needed to enable module loading in the menuconfig. I wasn't sure if that was needed or should have been part of the config file I pulled from my CHIP but I was getting the warning to do that with the basic explanation in the README.]

The second issue I ran in to after that was once it starts building, I am getting a hundred or so needs unknown symbol warnings from the rtl8723bs driver that is build they all look like this:

depmod: WARNING: /root/chip-linux/module/lib/modules/4.4.13-gae94698-dirty/extra/8723bs.ko needs unknown symbol register_netdevice_notifier

I don't get any errors from what I can tell, but when looking in the loot directory after doing the build, the firmware directory just has an empty folder in it with my version name and nothing in it. So it seems like it isn't actually finishing the build.

I wasn't sure where to go from here. I've done kernel builds before, just never compiled and built drivers like this before.

Thanks!

Also, I'm pointing to my own forks/archived versions of the repos here:
https://github.com/CHIP-SHED

So it is pulling code properly from here.

Might be worth checking if there is another branch that works in the repo, now that I think about it.
