kmod : protect against architectures without __NR_finit_module
This bug caused udev to fail to load any module, crashing with Illegal instruction. The patch was taken from upstream and should be integrated in the next version of kmod (version 14) Signed-off-by: Jérémy Rosen <jeremy.rosen@openwide.fr> Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard <jacmet@sunsite.dk>

+Subject: libkmod: Avoid calling syscall() with -1
+
+At least in qemu 1.4.1 for vexpress/arm-cortexa9, this resulted in an
+illegal instruction error. Solve that by returning an error when
+__NR_finit_module is -1.
