Not only libahci modules, all built modules has the problem.

Follows the command line for building libahci.ko:

1) apt-get source linux-image-`uname -r`

2) cd linux-XXXX #only one directory is generated

3) make -C /usr/src/linux-headers-`uname -r` M=`pwd` drivers/ata/libahci.ko

then the libahci.ko will be generated.

BTW, the issue can only be reproduced on Xenial.
