It does provide the modules, just not in a udeb.

There was one complaint that this prevents grub-installer from including
other operating system installed on reiserfs, so that might be a reason
to restore the udeb.

But it is quite right that partman-reiserfs is removed - we should not
be offering reiserfs as an option for new installatons.
