How about making a comment about the requirement in the GENERIC
config file, in a manner used for device 'ed' or device 'sbp' for
example?
...
options INET6 # IPv6 communications
protocols
options SCTP # Stream Control Transmission
Protocol
# SCTP requires
'options INET6'
options FFS
...
Or are the comments about in requirement at 'GENERIC' phased out?
