[gentoo-kernel] modules.aliases fila and externally build modules

[justin]

Hi,

I read this in a release note of aufs where we have a package to build
the external kernel module

o news
- Since linux-3.9, every filesystem module requires an alias
  "fs-<fsname>". You should make sure that "fs-aufs" is listed in your
  modules.aliases file if you set CONFIG_AUFS_FS=m.
  Generally it is registered when you compile and install your
  kernel. You may need to take care of modules.aliases file by yourself
  when you build the aufs module separately.


Do I need to take care of something special in future regarding the
modules.alias file?

thanks for clarification,
Justin
