* gnu/packages/linux.scm (make-linux-libre*): Parallelize kernel module
installation when possible.

Hi Guix!
This patch aims to speed up the kernel build process. Because module
installation has a fair amount of CPU activity (GZIP+STRIP), it
benefits from additional jobs. On my 32 logical core machine, the
install phase of linux-libre went from 45.4 seconds to 9.4 seconds.
