Do you mean adding this to ib_core?
I'm not sure we want to autoload ib_core whenever the userspace asks for
"socket(PF_NETLINK, SOCK_RAW, NETLINK_INFINIBAND)"
What's wrong with receiving a "protocol not supported" error?
If ib_core is not loaded then there's no data anyway.
Am I missing other possible effects of MODULE_ALIAS here?
This would make more sense if ib_netlink was in a separate module.
