Bug#652672: busybox: modprobe does not handle builtins

[Sven Joachim <svenjoac@gmx.de>]

Package: busybox
Version: 1:1.19.3-5
Severity: normal

Unlike the modprobe utility from module-init-tools, busybox' version
fails for built-in modules:

,----
| % grep ext4 /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/modules.builtin
| kernel/fs/ext4/ext4.ko
| % sudo modprobe ext4
| % sudo busybox modprobe ext4
| modprobe: module ext4 not found in modules.dep
`----

This leads to annoying error messages on boot.
