Currently, kmod is always selected, I want to give the choice to the user.

The host & guest share the same kernel.
In the guest, I want use it as it is configured by the host.
In my point of view, system stuff goes in the host side and the service
application goes in the guest.
At this time, my primary target is systemd-nspawn in the host, not
docker-engine
(I don't need a deployment model like with docker and the interaction
between a host systemd-nspawn and a guest systemd seems easy)
