Your kernel sources are too virgin. As soon as you do any configuring or
compiling, the symlink asm -> asm-ppc gets created. You can do this by
hand:
cd /usr/src/linux/include
ln -s asm-ppc asm
or say "make symlinks" in /usr/src/linux
Probably you should also verify that you have a symlink
/usr/include/asm -> ../src/linux/include/asm
