Log:
   Change the default installation directory for modules to /boot/modules.

   Kernel installs always override KMODDIR when installing modules, so
   this default setting is only used for standalone module builds.  Many
   out-of-tree modules manually override KMODDIR already to avoid placing
   modules in /boot/kernel.  This now makes that behavior the default.

   Relnotes:    yes

Just a small nit:

There is a comment in bsd.own.mk which needs updating too:

#
# KMODDIR       Base path for loadable kernel modules
#               (see kld(4)). [/boot/kernel]
Oops, thanks.  Fixed.

the comment should also mention it does not cover in-tree modules.
