Hi!

I am building a xen-enabled kernel and want to leave out module loading. 
Unfortunately the build scripts insist on building modules and fail when 
those are disabled.

Attached you will find a small patch for this issue. It needs to be applied to 
buildconfig/mk.linux-* where appropriate and makes sure modules are only 
build when enabled in the .config file.

It should work with both 2.6 and 2.4 kernels, but I have only tested this with 
the 2.6 series.

Gruss,
Tobias
