been mounted, before anyone could try to load any modules from it.
Also pass it a flag whether the boot volume is where the boot loader
pre-loaded the modules from.
* module_init_post_boot_device() changes the pre-loaded module image
paths to normalized boot volume paths, now. Got rid of the code in
register_preloaded_module_image() which tried something like this.
* Changed module image ref counting. A referenced module has single
reference to its image, which is released when the module becomes
unreferenced.
* get_module() for a reference module will not try to re-get and re-set
the module's image anymore. That could lead to a similar module (from
different paths) being loaded at the same time. A module from a new
file can only be loaded when the old one has been put completely.
* Simplified B_KEEP_ALIVE module handling a bit. When the module is
initialized, we add another reference, which we'll never free. Thus
the module remains loaded without special handling. Removed
module_image::keep_loaded. A B_KEEP_ALIVE module remains referenced
and thus its image remains referenced, too.
* Removed module::file, a cached path to the module's image. An
optimization that wouldn't work with multiple root directories for
modules (/boot/beos/..., /boot/common/...) or when module files were
moved. get_module() does now always search the image file, when the
module is still unreferenced. This should be a bit slower than before,
but I didn't notice any difference in VMware at least. If it turns out
to be a problem we could introduce a more intelligent cache that stays
up to date by using node monitoring.

as they aren't unloaded when there is no boot device yet.

now a lot earlier.
* That makes it now possible to use modules pretty early in the kernel (like
before timer_init(), or int_init_post_vm()).

some broken C++ export definitions, added missing licenses etc.

Removed dependencies on arch/x86/types.h - this file is not really used
anymore, now. Might prevent compiling on Windows, though.
Replaced "int" with "int32" for the id types.
Removed some stuff from ktypes.h because it didn't belong there.
