The kernel module installation path is currently defined in multiple
places, although it is used 10 times throughout the code. This
increases the risk of bugs due to inconsistencies or desynchronization.

Centralizing the path in a single variable makes the code more
reliable and easier to maintain.

This commit introduce KERNEL_MODULE_INSTALL_PREFIX to resolve this issue.
