I can explicitly include ucom in a kernel by adding "device ucom" in the
configuration file, in which case it would call DRIVER_MODULE(), right?
That would then make it appear in the "kldstat -v" list? So why is it a
driver when it's done explicitly, but not a driver when done implicitly?
That makes no sense to me since the functionality doesn't change. IMHO,
this is a bug that needs to be fixed, not just for ucom but any
implicitly included driver.

Who should submit a bug report?

There was a documentation bug that was put in regarding the ucom device, and
it was to update the device name in the documentation.

I don't know if a PR is still required, but this may be worth a look first.

usb_quirk.4 appears to be a copy and edit of ucom.4. The device name edit was missed, so it still referred to ucom.

I don't think this affects what you're talking about.
