Some distributions aim at not shipping any files in / ustside of usr.
The path under which kernel modules are instaleld is hardcoded to /lib
which conflicts with this goal.
When kmod provides the config command use it to determine the correct
module installation prefix.
On kmod that does not provide the command / is used as before.
