I wonder if we shouldn't have:

net_pf_request_module(PF_PHONET, protocol)

[acme@doppio linux-2.6]$ grep "net-pf-%d-proto-%d" net/*/*.c
net/ipv4/af_inet.c: request_module("net-pf-%d-proto-%d-type-%d",
net/ipv4/af_inet.c: request_module("net-pf-%d-proto-%d",
net/ipv4/inet_diag.c: request_module("net-pf-%d-proto-%d-type-%d", PF_NETLINK,
net/ipv6/af_inet6.c: request_module("net-pf-%d-proto-%d-type-%d",
net/ipv6/af_inet6.c: request_module("net-pf-%d-proto-%d",
net/netlink/af_netlink.c: request_module("net-pf-%d-proto-%d", PF_NETLINK, protocol);
[acme@doppio linux-2.6]$

Nah, perhaps not...

maybe it is not such a bad idea. Every protocol seems to have its own
code in it. I am using this:

#if defined(CONFIG_KMOD)
        if (!bt_proto[proto]) {
                request_module("bt-proto-%d", proto);
        }
#endif

Regards

Marcel

Looking at it, I could not find a "vrequest_module", which seems to preclude a 
functional implementation?? Not sure if a macro makes much sense here.
