The code originally used get_module_symbol(), which did what I wanted quite 
nicely - it meant that modules like cfi_probe didn't have to have a hard 
dependency on every individual command set module. It was changed to the 
new inter_module_xxx abomination when Linus decided to include it in 
2.4.0-test$something, and it introduced link order dependencies and 
generally broke. Let's just strip it out and let the modules depend on each 
other. We can play ugly ifdef tricks to 'fix' that, it's better than using 
inter_module_get().
