The differential revision (which should be cited using the complete url
in the commit) seems to indicate that it's because it can be kldloaded.

This change misses the armv6 platform, where the option appears in
std.armv6, which gets included in GENERIC (and all other armv6
configs).

This change seems to warrant an entry in UPDATING, because it's going
to catch a lot of people by surprise.  Even people with custom kernels,
if they follow the advice of the handbook and "include GENERIC" then
override things.
