Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * chzdev fails to load additional kernel modules at runtime,
  resulting in failure to activate devices.

  [Test Case]

   $ chzdev zfcp --type datarouter=0 dbflevel=5

  Should succeed, instead of erroring out / not able to find modprobe.

  [Regression Potential]

   * This corrects compiled-in path to /sbin/modprobe, thus making
  available previously a broken codepath of chzdev.

  [Other Info]
   
   * Original bug report

  Description:  only when trying to change some attributes chzdev fails
  because it cant find modprobe under Ubuntu 18.04

                root@m83lp09:~# chzdev zfcp --type datarouter=0 dbflevel=5
                sh: 1: /usr/sbin/modprobe: not found
                zfcp device type configure failed
                    Error: Command failed (exit code 127): /usr/sbin/modprobe -r zfcp

                root@m83lp09:~# whereis modprobe
                modprobe: /sbin/modprobe /etc/modprobe.d /lib/modprobe.d /usr/share/man/man8/modprobe.8.gz

  Potential solution ? : adding a symlink is a workaround, is this path
  hardcoded?
