Hello, Denys!

Made another patch. Tried to fix the issues you pointed out.

Please, try it.

TIA,

P.S.

Still hesitating:
1) whether to delegate actual module loading to native BB insmod or use bundled \
procedure? 2) race condition arises when modules.dep.bb is absent and a bunch of \
modprobes is called (e.g. udevtrigger at system startup). The quick solution is to \
force running depmod prior to udevtrigger. So whether to implement locking (mutexes? \
flock?) or  abandon filesystem-backed module dependencies storage (modules.dep.bb) \
and shift to memory-backed one?
