[ SRU Justification ] Under some conditions, the kmod error messages from a missing modules.builtin will end up on the console, making it difficult to interact with the installer. Furthermore, it's a performance hit and a general confusion to be missing the file. [ Test Case ] Watch for errors on the console, and also check syslog at the end of the install. ls /lib/modules/$(uname -r) to see if modules.builtin.bin is non-zero length. [ Regression potential ] Pretty much nil, given the content of the patch, and that it's a no-op on kernels that don't provide a modules.builtin.
