Give that there's already a fix in linux-next, I can't do anything here.

Rusty, the regression was introduced by

commit 4cb9da6ecc2b0e25056b45981239475f8509d59d

    remove CONFIG_KMOD from net
    
    Some code here depends on CONFIG_KMOD to not try to load
    protocol modules or similar, replace by CONFIG_MODULES
    where more than just request_module depends on CONFIG_KMOD
    and and also use try_then_request_module in ebtables.

Could you please take care of getting it fixed up?

Thanks.
