From: Emil Velikov <emil.l.velikov@xxxxxxxxx>
The extra enum was introduced a few years ago, although the (only)
function using it did not have it's documentation updated.
The commit itself has caused an ABI break with kmod v27, since the
KMOD_INDEX_MODULES_BUILTIN value has changed.
A search through Google, Github and Arch packages have shown one user of
kmod_dump_index() - the only API that uses the enum.
In that case and all others, no projects referencing the changed enum
were found. Although since recent and/or supported distros use kmod v27
or later we've decided to only update the documentation.

them are no longer supported.
