Clarification on moving to drm-stable-kmod on 11.2

A while ago I moved to running drm-stable-kmod on my 11.2 system and have
not had any issues, but I am unclear on what, if ny changes are appropriate
in my loader.conf. I just noticed that the "old" kernel module is atill
being loaded and I think that is wrong.

My loader.conf contains:
drm.i915.enable_rc6=7
# Enable semaphores
drm.i915.semaphores=1
Are these appropriate to drm-stable-kmod? If so, is loader.conf the proper
place for them?

I do see the following modules loaded:
12    1 0xffffffff82434000 11d0a7   i915kms.ko
13    1 0xffffffff82552000 71510    drm.ko
14    4 0xffffffff825c4000 ef50     linuxkpi.ko
15    3 0xffffffff825d3000 d490     linuxkpi_gplv2.ko
Thanks for any information on this.
