>Description:
The filesystem module corresponding to mount_null(8) is installed
as "null.kmod", and therefore is loaded by "modload null"; but it
identifies itself as "nullfs", and therefore must be unloaded by
"modunload nullfs", not "modunload null".
>How-To-Repeat:
See above. (Obviously this needs a kernel which is MODULAR and
also not MONOLITHIC.)
>Fix:
Someone should decide whether it's "null" or "nullfs" and change
the module filename resp. the module's internal name.
