From: Kamil Rytarowski <Kamil.Rytarowski at caviumnetworks.com>
Currently rte_eal_check_module() detects Linux kernel modules via reading
/proc/modules. Built-in ones aren't listed there and therefore they are not
being found by the script.
Add support for checking built-in modules with parsing the sysfs files
This commit obsoletes the /proc/modules parsing approach.
