Subject: [PATCH] depmod: Prevent module dependency files missing during depmod
invocation.
Depmod deletes the module dependency files before moving the temporary
files in their place. This results in user seeing no dependency files
while they are updated. Remove the unlink call. The rename call should
suffice to move the newa file in place and remove unlink the old one. It
should also do both atomically so there is no window whn no dependency
file exists.
