Hello Chris,

I would consider a BSP broken that has a problem with the change. So
yes: It should be fixed in that case.

I haven't had a specific BSP in mind. Every BSP that currently uses an
EARLY.*MODULE would be an candidate. Luckily it's not that many:


> grep "EARLY.*MODULE" -r --exclude-dir=freebsd-org . -l
./freebsd/sys/sys/bus.h
./freebsd/sys/dev/iicbus/ofw_iicbus.c
./freebsd/sys/dev/pci/pci_pci.c
./freebsd/sys/dev/pci/pci.c
./freebsd/sys/dev/gpio/ofw_gpiobus.c
./freebsd/sys/dev/gpio/gpiobus.c
./freebsd/sys/dev/ofw/ofwbus.c
./freebsd/sys/dev/fdt/simplebus.c
./freebsd/sys/arm/freescale/imx/imx_gpio.c
./freebsd/sys/arm/ti/am335x/am335x_prcm.c
./freebsd/sys/arm/ti/ti_scm.c

So: BBB, i.MX, everything using PCI

It's not that much and most are active ones. So it shouldn't be a
problem as long as the maintainers of these BSPs know that they should
take a look at that if they have strange problems. Beagle is covered by
Nils' work. For i.MX and some PCI BSPs we should give Sebastian a hint
(just added him on CC). I'm not sure who else uses PCI. Maybe x86?

Best regards

Christian
