[Assist] Problem loading acpi_call and tp_smapi kernel module

[Isaac David]

I compared the output of

modprobe --dump-modversions "$path_to_module_file" | grep  module_layout

using different built-in modules and then the tp_smapi module, and I 
can confirm that there's a version mismatch between tp_smapi and the 
others. The module_layout version must match exactly for the kernel to 
accept loading a module. However this is also happening in Arch using 
their blobed kernel and their tp_smapi package, which suggests me that 
this is an upstream problem, not unique to Parabola.
