Rasmus Villemoes f4d3f25ace docs: admin-guide: update description for kernel.modprobe sysctl 
When I added CONFIG_MODPROBE_PATH, I neglected to update Documentation/.
It's still true that this defaults to /sbin/modprobe, but now via a level
of indirection.  So document that the kernel might have been built with
something other than /sbin/modprobe as the initial value.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
