/proc aren't real files, rather information about the system.

For example if I cat /proc/modules, it shows me a list of currently 
loaded modules.

If the makefile tries to detect the intel modem module and it is not 
loaded (which is strange in an install phase), then maybe you should try 
to modprobe the module you built before running make install.
