If the kernel configuration CONFIG_MODULES disabled, there's no
/lib/modules/<version> directory, causing this:

depmod: ERROR: could not open directory [...]/target/lib/modules/4.19.8: No such file or directory
depmod: FATAL: could not search modules: No such file or directory
Makefile:745: recipe for target 'target-finalize' failed

Thanks, applied after adding a number of references to defconfig build
failures that are fixed by this patch. Thanks!
