You have to have the rest of the sources installed to use make buildkernel; it's really only needed if you're upgrading your entire system with make world. By the way, please try and aim for accuracy in your posts. So far you've said your kernel sources are in three different locations: /usr/src/sys, /usr/sys and /src/sys. These things are important for people who are trying to help you.
