The problem is that kmemcheck.h is located in include/asm-x86/ which is wrong. [Checked master branch at mingo/linux-2.6-x86.git of now. It should be located in arch/x86/include/asm
I think you see the bug due to a wrong symlink being created.
Anyway that symlink will soon be history - at least when we have a few more archs that has moved to use arch/$ARCH/include
