This patch fixes the issue.

Module `rts5229.ko' goes to `/lib/modules/<kernel>/kernel', which is bad, because on the next call to `make modules_install' it's getting wiped out. I suggest installing it to `/lib/modules/<kernel>/extra' (as in /usr/src/linux/Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt). Patch attached.

Stop doing what? It's you guys who need a reminder to fix bugs, not me.
