>Description:
when ef driver is loaded via loader.conf everything works OK, but if I,
instead, compile pseudo-device ef into kernel, ethernet interfaces do not get
created. I can see that all if_ef_* symbols are present in kernel, however.

>How-To-Repeat:
1. compile kernel with pseudo-device ef
2. make sure if_ef module will not be loaded
3. reboot
4. run ifconfig to see if you have any xxNfM interfaces 
(xxN - network device, M - ethernet type number)
