Makefile for Linux-3.14 doesn't find patches (and drivers)

It seems this code doesn't work with linux version 30e04

  cd $(PWD)/patches; ls diff--* | awk -v v=$(LIN_VER) -F -- \
  '{ if ((!$$3 || $$3 <= v) && (!$$4 || v < $$4)) print $$0; }')

In shell:

ls diff--* | awk -v v=30e04 -F -- '{ if ((!$3 || $3 <= v) && (!$4 || v < $4)) 
print $0; }'

returns nothing

I have to do "mv diff--ixgbe--30a00--99999.patch 
diff--ixgbe--30a00--999999.patch"  to make it work.
I.e. sixth 'nine' in the name of file.

Yes, that's because awk is interpreting 30e04 as a number (i.e., 30*10^4) and 
not as a string. We are going to push a batch of updates, including a fix for 
this, in a few days. If you replace

'{ if ((!$$3 || $$3 <= v) && (!$$4 || v < $$4)) print $$0; }'

with 

'{ if ((!$$3 || $$3 <= v"") && (!$$4 || v"" < $$4)) print $$0; }'

the recipe should work again.

This looks like a different problem. Are you sure you have the full kernel 
sources installed, as opposed to only the header files? In case the full 
sources are installed, maybe they are not linked correctly from 
/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build. Please try with

make SRC=/path/to/kernel/sources
