I tested it only on [2.1.50] without compile all modules of the kernel.

before the patch:
arca:~/devel/linux_dev$ ls -l modules/
total 2
-rw-r--r-- 1 andrea internal 7 Aug 15 16:51 NET_MISC_MODULES
-rw-r--r-- 1 andrea internal 26 Aug 15 16:51 SCSI_MODULES
lrwxrwxrwx 1 andrea internal 21 Aug 15 16:51 lp.o -> ../drivers/char//lp.o
lrwxrwxrwx 1 andrea internal 26 Aug 15 16:51 parport.o -> ../drivers/misc//parport.o
lrwxrwxrwx 1 andrea internal 29 Aug 15 16:51 parport_pc.o -> ../drivers/misc//parport_pc.olrwxrwxrwx 1 andrea internal 22 Aug 15 16:51 ppa.o -> ../drivers/scsi//ppa.o
lrwxrwxrwx 1 andrea internal 27 Aug 15 16:51 scsi_mod.o -> ../drivers/scsi//scsi_mod.o
lrwxrwxrwx 1 andrea internal 25 Aug 15 16:51 sd_mod.o -> ../drivers/scsi//sd_mod.o
^^

arca:~/devel/linux_dev$ ls modules/ -l
