package/busybox: support automatic module loading with mdev
A recently discussed on the mailing list: http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/buildroot/2016-February/154189.html Our mdev configuration currently doesn't handle module loading. Fix that by: - Telling mdev to run modprobe on hotplug events providing MODALIAS - Adjust the init script to handle coldplug modalias events (E.G. modules for which the devices were already present before mdev was added as the hotplug handler). mdev -s should arguable handle this, but it doesn't.
