we want to merge the modules in the same folder both explictly or implicitly, here is an example: copy_including_deps /$LMK/kernel/fs/fuse copy_including_deps /$LMK/kernel/drivers/virtio kernel/fs/fuse/virtiofs.ko depends on: * kernel/drivers/virtio/virtio_ring.ko * kernel/drivers/virtio/virtio.ko * kernel/fs/fuse/fuse.ko so folder $INITRAMFS/kernel/drivers/virtio is created when coping kernel/fs/fuse/virtiofs.ko, and then nothing will be copied for the kernel/drivers/virtio, because $INITRAMFS/kernel/drivers/virtio has already been created, as the previous implementation did, which is not what we wanted only return if the target exists and is not a folder, so that we can merge the wanted modules in the same folder
in a QEMU VM use case, the block device for the rootfs is most probably based on virtio, so we need to include these necessary virtio modules to load root device
