selftests: kmod: test disabling module autoloading
Test that request_module() fails with -ENOENT when
/proc/sys/kernel/modprobe contains (a) a nonexistent path, and (b) an
empty path.
Case (b) is a regression test for the patch "kmod: make request_module()
return an error when autoloading is disabled".
Tested with 'kmod.sh -t 0010 && kmod.sh -t 0011', and also simply with
'kmod.sh' to run all kmod tests.

kmod: throttle kmod thread limit
If we reach the limit of modprobe_limit threads running the next
request_module() call will fail. The original reason for adding a kill
was to do away with possible issues with in old circumstances which would
create a recursive series of request_module() calls.
We can do better than just be super aggressive and reject calls once we've
reached the limit by simply making pending callers wait until the
threshold has been reduced, and then throttling them in, one by one.
This throttling enables requests over the kmod concurrent limit to be
processed once a pending request completes. Only the first item queued up
to wait is woken up. The assumption here is once a task is woken it will
have no other option to also kick the queue to check if there are more
pending tasks -- regardless of whether or not it was successful.
By throttling and processing only max kmod concurrent tasks we ensure we
avoid unexpected fatal request_module() calls, and we keep memory
consumption on module loading to a minimum.
With x86_64 qemu, with 4 cores, 4 GiB of RAM it takes the following run
time to run both tests:
time ./kmod.sh -t 0008
real 0m16.366s
user 0m0.883s
sys 0m8.916s
time ./kmod.sh -t 0009
real 0m50.803s
user 0m0.791s
sys 0m9.852s
