re: Some guidance/suggestion please



it seems to me that if some driver depends upon altq, then
altq should simply always refuse to unload if a driver is
loaded that depends upon it.  this should be an explicit
dependency, and probably implicit via symbols.

if, say there's a fully modular system with two NICs, and
only one of them supports altq.  only one of the NIC drivers
will declare a dep on altq, blocking the unload of altq
while the driver remains loaded.


if this isn't already the case, can we arrange it to be?
