Were you planning on including them in the ar71xx kernel configs via 
MODULES_OVERRIDE or some such?  If so, that would be sufficient to get
'make tinderbox' to cover them at least (and hopefully tinderbox builds).
In that case I think it is fine to not have them hooked up in the main
sys/modules build.  Or rather, if Warner commits his KERNOPTS thing, perhaps
you could make sys/modules/Makefile include them on appropriate SoC kernels
only.
