defaults/linuxrc: Disable processing of modules_load file by default
Now that we are using (e)udev with kmod support, we can rely on UDEV to
load required kernel modules.
Old module loading based on modules_load file can still be enabled via
boolean "gk.hw.use-modules_load" kernel command-line option which is inverting
and replacing previous "nodetect" kernel command-line option.
