New Revision: 346441
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/346441

Log:
  Use symlinks for kernel modules rather than hardlinks
  
  When aliasing a kernel module to a different name (ie if_igb for if_em),
  it's better to use symlinks than hard links. kldxref will omit entries for
  the links, ensuring that the loaded module has the correct name.
