Drop our own /sbin/modprobe and use busybox built-in applet instead

Our modprobe is an ancient heritage from the past, probably dating to
a time where busybox's modprobe features were limited. There is no reason
at all to keep using our own version instead of the busybox one.
This commit also makes modules_scan 15% faster.
