+       Since the kernel version was bumped to 9.99.100, the bootloader
+       must be updated on x86 and efiboot platforms in order to load
+       modules.
+
+       The kernel can still load modules at runtime with no bootloader
+       update.  This will not affect release branches because it only
+       applies to patch numbers >100.
