Remove hack for ancient version of module-init-tools that was added in
Linux 3.0.
Since then module-init-tools was replaced with kmod.
This hack adds an additional indirection, and causes confusing errors
to be printed when depmod fails.
Reverts commit 8fc62e594253 ("kbuild: Do not write to builddir in modules_install")
Reverts commit bfe5424a8b31 ("kbuild: Hack for depmod not handling X.Y versions")
