I think we should enable KLD_TIED to inline critical_* etc. for modules
built as part of a kernel that are installed alongside the kernel in /boot/<kerneldir>.
I don't think we need to support modules built with kernel A loaded into kernel B.

I think we should not enable it for "standalone" module builds done in ports or via
"cd /sys/modules/foo; make" that install to /boot/modules so that those modules can
work with different kernels.  This still permits someone to load a module into kernel
A that they had disabled in kernel A's config file (via NO_MODULES or MODULES_OVERRIDE
or some such) by doing 'cd /sys/modules/foo; make; make load'.
