[PATCH] kconfig: If lsmod is not in the /sbin, check the path

From: John Kacur
Date: Tue Jan 19 2010 - 11:10:48 EST


Mike Frysinger reported that lsmod is installed in /bin on newer kernels
which causes a problem when we hardcode the path to /sbin

However, Américo Wang reports that some distros don't have /sbin in PATH,
so you can't just let lsmod be found via PATH.

So, first check if lsmod is at /sbin/lsmod, and then check PATH if that fails.
