Release independent configuration issue.

>Description:

Given a stock GENERIC kernel install, the ipl.ko module fails to
load due to missing PFIL_HOOKS option, therefore the kernel must
be recompiled to enable any kind of ipfilter support.

>How-To-Repeat:

Just kldload ipl on a stock GENERIC kernel.

# kldload ipl
link_elf: symbol pfil_add_hook undefined

Then add PFIL_HOOKS and watch it fly :)

# kldload ipl
IP Filter: v3.4.31 initialized.  Default = pass all, Logging = enabled

>Fix:

The following options should be added to GENERIC.

options		PFIL_HOOKS
