Error while make

[MoudhafferBlg]

make clean runs fine.

sudo make or make runs into this error :

root@kali:~/mt7601u# make make -C /lib/modules/uname -r/build M=$PWD make[1]: Entering directory '/usr/src/linux-headers-5.4.0-kali2-amd64' CC [M] /root/mt7601u/eeprom.o /root/mt7601u/eeprom.c: In function ‘mt7601u_efuse_physical_size_check’: /root/mt7601u/eeprom.c:77:2: error: ISO C90 forbids array ‘data’ whose size can’t be evaluated [-Werror=vla] 77 | u8 data[map_reads * 16]; | ^~ cc1: all warnings being treated as errors make[3]: [/usr/src/linux-headers-5.4.0-kali2-common/scripts/Makefile.build:271: /root/mt7601u/eeprom.o] Error 1 make[2]: [/usr/src/linux-headers-5.4.0-kali2-common/Makefile:1665: /root/mt7601u] Error 2 make[1]: [/usr/src/linux-headers-5.4.0-kali2-common/Makefile:179: sub-make] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/linux-headers-5.4.0-kali2-amd64' make: [Makefile:8: default] Error 2

I'd really appreciate the help I've been working on this all day can't find a fix

Please use the upstream driver, building this driver from GitHub is only needed on very old kernels which don't have the in-tree support. The in-tree / upstream driver is exactly the same code.
