A similar issue is ebuilds installing both kernel modules and firmware.
We (the mobile herd) has been splitting these into 'foo' and
'foo-firmware' recently, see net-wireless/ for examples. I suggest this
become a guideline as well.

Speaking of guidelines, we (the kernel herd) plan to write a "Writing a
kernel module HOWTO" as soon as things cool down with the
linux-mod.eclass changes...

Sincerely,
Brix
