The variable module_sysfs_initialized is used for checking whether
module_kset has been initialized. Checking module_kset itself works
just fine for that.

Looks pretty sane to me, thanks! I'll queue this up for 6.2
as we didn't get a chance to spin test this for 6.1 on linux-next.

Maybe you can mention that this is a leftover from commit 7405c1e15edf 
("kset: convert /sys/module to use kset_create")
