In the past I solved conflicts and confusion about multiple versions of lustre modules in /lib/modules by just removing the set I didn't want. If there was a set from drivers/staging, I just removed them, then installed the set from our .deb build.
With only one set of lustre modules present depmod and module loads could not pick the wrong ones.

The solution in this mod is much more elegant, doesn't require manual intervention.
