Re: [PATCH 2/2] Revert "kernel: Modify kernel modules installation path."

[Amarnath Valluri <amarnath.valluri@intel.com>]

Hi,

I am very sorry, i couldn't respond earlier than this, somehow i missed
this thread :(

The motivation of these patches was achieving merged '/usr' in oe-core,
which demands no package installs anything into root(/bin, /sbin, /lib)
folders, and i see no exception for kernel modules/firmware(may be i am
wrong :!). In the real merged usr environment this shouldn't be a
problem as the root symlinks exists.

I guess i can resend these patches as part of 'usrmerge' feature patch
sequence, by keeping these changes behind DISTRO_FEATURES check:
