     Hi, Panu, perfect thank you for your feedback, I going to change that
path by /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/extra/ in my patch.

Thanks.
Mario.

/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build is the path you need when *building*
external kernel modules, you dont want to install anything there.

The default install path for the kernel modules should be somewhere
within /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/extra/, but dunno what the recommended
naming/placing within that is.

Sorry for not catching this earlier,
