It is not uncommon (and not unreasonable) for multiple modules to declare support for the same hardware. However, short of recompiling or blacklisting entire modules, there is no mechanism, e.g. via configuration files, for configuring which module will actually take charge of which hardware. Isn't this lack the real problem? Is there a reason why the kernel does not provide such a mechanism?
