Including linux/kmod.h alone results in 1.5 MB of preprocessed output, even
though it provides only a few functions and macros.

The header currently depends on:

* __printf() -> linux/compiler_attributes.h,
* ENOSYS -> linux/errno.h,
* bool -> linux/types.h.

Include only these files, reducing the preprocessed output to 10 kB.
