The count attribute must be an XSLT pattern, $footnote is not a pattern. You'll get another error here, which is that there is no context node inside a function. You need to add select="$footnote" to indicate which node you want to be numbered. The count attribute indicates which nodes should be counted. For example, if you want to number figures and equations in the same numbering sequence, you write count="figure|equation". By default, you count nodes of the same name as the one you are numbering, so you can probably just omit this attribute.
