Driver core: move the driver specific module code into the driver core

The module driver specific code should belong in the driver core, not in
the kernel/ directory.  So move this code.  This is done in preparation
for some struct device_driver rework that should be confined to the
driver core code only.

This also lets us keep from exporting these functions, as no external
code should ever be calling it.

Thanks to Andrew Morton for the !CONFIG_MODULES fix.
