Hi Jags

The kernel recipe splits all kernel modules into separate packages.
Plus it creates a meta package with dependencies on all created kernel
module packages.

Add either the kernel module packages your interested in or add the meta
package to get all modules to your image.

Check you machine's deploy directory for kernel-module* files to get the
package names, kernel-modules is the one which pulls in all.
