Fix "modinfo -F always shows name for built-ins"

Bug reported by Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=970871

Now that the kernel provides module information for potentially
modular code that's actually built-in, it's possible to query these
built-ins with "modinfo -F".  However, this doesn't work quite right:

$ modinfo -Flicense e1000e
GPL v2
$ modinfo -Flicense bitrev
name:           bitrev
GPL
