The /tmp and modules_install saga

I've just spent a few minutes fixing this and realised the actual fix
is trivial. If you swap the /tmp/ with $$MODLIB/ then it keeps its
work files in /lib/modules/... which it _must_ be able to write to anyway
if you are going to install modules.

End of problem. Patch will go to Linus shortly
