I saw this build error in linux-next and sent a patch for it -- it's below.
However, it doesn't appear to be exactly the same config as yours.

When CONFIG_SQUASHFS=m and CONFIG_DECOMPRESS_LZMA=m, decompress_lzma
is built but then discarded from the library because no built-in code
uses it, so change it from a lib- to an obj- to force it to be kept
in the library.

ERROR: "unlzma" [fs/squashfs/squashfs.ko] undefined!
