After you install the module you need to update symbol dependencies:
"depmod -e". "make modules_install" normally does this for you, but that
applies only to modules in kernel tree and assumes you want to replace
all of them with that small change, of course. There are probably
smarter ways to do it, but this Just Works(tm).
