Your kernel sources do not match your kernel config.  It looks like you
have 4.x sources since I removed count from faith, gif, and loop years
ago in 5.x.  I don't know how you managed that, but I'd suggest removing
your source tree and starting over following the instructions in the
handbook.

Give that config failed, this is expected.
