[PATCH] kmod: correct documentation of return status of request_module

[NeilBrown]

if request_module() successfully runs modprobe, but modprobe
exits with a non-zero status, then the return value from
request_module() will be that (positive) error status.
So the return from request_module can be:
 negative errno
 zero for success
 positive exit code.
