That would make compat-crap stuff difficult, at least I cannot think of an
easy way to deal with it. See scripts/iwl-load, part of compat-wireless. This
is used to simply rename iwl4965 to iwl4965.ignore and let iwlagn kick in
if you are on an older kernel. If we move iwlagn to iwlwifi... umm.. wait did
we ever have an "iwlwifi" driver?
