    kldload(8): Improve phrasing
    
    Mountroot isn't documented in the extant manual pages - so this
    phrasing, while less absolute and concise, still conveys which
    modules are recommended to be handled via loader.conf(5), and it also
    does a better job of elucidating that the modules can include filesystem
    drivers.
