Linode doesn't provide /lib/modules/kernel-linode/modules.builtin, but
this shouldn't be a problem.


Why should that not be a problem if modules.builtin is missing?

In the case of Linode, they boot on a third party kernel which doesn't
provide anything in /lib/modules/ because the kernel is not on the
disk.

Another use case would be if you were to boot on a PXE kernel which
has every of its modules built-in. You want to fail silently if
/lib/modules/kernel/modules.builtin doesn't exist.


https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/kbuild/kbuild.txt says, that
you really want that, if you don't want modprobe to not fail for builtin
modules.

Is loop builtin in your case?

Yes. Loop is builtin.

Do you have loop in /etc/modules or /etc/modules-load.d/*?

If so, the error is expected behaviour, as outlined above.
If you don't want the error, either ship a modules.builtin with your kernel or don't try to load a builtin module.
