As a module, you can load it and remove it as you please, but not if it's
builtin. Usually, drivers go as modules, and other features don't (that's
your choice). But if you need something (such as ext2 suport, for example)
available at boot time, before modules load, you must build the code inside
the kernel.
But usually modules accept more parameters that the same code but kernel
builtin, so a point goes to modules.
If you're thinking about the kernel builtin code to be faster as the modules,
then you'd be wrong. They are the same code, but linked in a different way.
I need to sleep, and I'm not making too much sense. I hope that it helped (at
least that it didn't confuse you more).
Cheers,
