I understand that depending on how tests are run, kernel modules may be
available to be loaded. My point is that I am not aware of anything that we
would loose by having the functionality built-in to begin with (others can
correct me). So it seems as if that's an easy way to sidestep any issues of that
sort from the start and, hence, would be my preference.
