Previously we were loading kernel modules on all device events save
for "remove". With the introduction of KOBJ_BIND/KOBJ_UNBIND this causes
issues, as driver modules that have devices bound to their drivers get
immediately reloaded, and it appears to the user that module unloading
does not work.
Let's change the rules to only load modules on "add" events instead.

The 'kmod' builtin, like the 'firmware' and 'uaccess' builtins, does not set
any variables, so don't use IMPORT.
Notice that this changes the behaviour slightly: the processing of subsequent
rules for the event that loads a module will no longer wait for the module
loading to finish. This is not expected to cause any problems, but we should
keep an eye on it.
