FWIW, the module is not initializing because its char/block device has
already been hooked in by the glue generated by config(1). Two ways to
achieve the same thing and one wins. It's harmless. Some #ifdefs would sort
the warning, but we need to do some serious work on the kernel config scheme
to handle both modules and static builds well.
