I believe make will set the variable whenever the makefile is used, even
when building as non-root.

It turns out that it was just lsmod with no path originally, but Michael
Krufky changed it back in 2005 (commit b0e7b40744ef) to have a hardcoded
path.  Then later in commit c91e7f84a1d6 the only use of 'v4l_modules' was
deleted, so we can just delete this line and not worry about sbin and
paths.
