kernel.bbclass: Fix empty modules directory QA issue
If a kernel is built without any external modules (aka no CONFIG_*=m), then during a modules_install of the kernel an empty directory is created at /lib/modules/${KERNEL_VERIONS}/kernel. This is behaviour of the kernel infrastructure, the directory would normally be populated with the modules that were built. However because of the expectations of kernel-modules-split, no packages are created when there are no modules and an empty directory lingers. This raises QA issues as warning or errors (depending on the distro). The following patch changes the kernel_do_install task to check if the directory is empty and if so removes it.
