In general, if a kernel feature is built into the kernel there is no
appropriate module file. Because the functionality is in the kernel.

I never tried it, but if you got an appropriate kernel config for your
running kernel you could start by "make modules && make modules_install"
(regarding 2.4.x series)
This only works of course if
- - you just miss the module file
- - it is _not_ build into the kernel
- - and your kernel is prepared to load that feature through a module
Good luck,
Florian
