Thanks Piotr, good work!
Question: Is `-T0` really faster in this particular case than the default `-T1`? Are modules installed sequentially?
I also saw that Masahiro did some work on modules_install, moving MODULE_COMPRESS from the base Makefile to scripts/Makefile.modinst, so perhaps this should also be moved there at a later point.

(sorry for double post)
