Based on patches from Mike Frysinger, add insmod support for
sparc and ia64 (itanium). Also, reorganize the insmod architecture support code to be alphasorted and less messy. Update the readme to list current insmod arch support. git-svn-id: svn://busybox.net/trunk/busybox@9197 69ca8d6d-28ef-0310-b511-8ec308f3f277
