  == Comment: #3 - ==
  To me it  looks like packaging issue with linux-image/linux-header package.

  Out of all the installed linux-header, generic did have the
  crtsavres.o file, while it was missing in other case.

  Recreating the issue:

  Again with ' linux-headers-4.2.0-16-generic' HID_module compiled successfully, however failed with ' linux-headers-4.2.0-16' with same error 
  >> 'ld: cannot find arch/powerpc/lib/crtsavres.o: No such file or directory'
