You also need to rework or revert

  https://salsa.debian.org/md/kmod/-/commit/c2ae42ca3a338fba0f190e3a61a635d386b1e8fa

as also mentioned in https://bugs.debian.org/1100072. Kmod shouldn't be using rm
on the symlinks. At least use update-rc.d and check if /etc/init.d/kmod doesn't
still exist (i.e hasn't been taken over). If you are unsure, you might want to
look at Michael Biebl's way of dealing with this situation in udev.postinst.
