Comments? (The netfilter stuff needs further investigation.)
Also, please add these, since they're nearly always loaded (patch is on top of yours):

Not that I object to this or anything of the sort, but it would be nice if when people were asking for things to be built-in, to see the size difference on vmlinux on a Fedora build with it enabled.
Well, I haven't done a build (on a slow laptop right now) but these modules don't have anything funny going wrt compiling differently when modular. So that means:
-rwxr--r-- 1 root root 25K 2008-09-23 21:38 dm-mirror.ko -rwxr--r-- 1 root root 25K 2008-09-23 21:38 dm-snapshot.ko -rwxr--r-- 1 root root 7.0K 2008-09-23 21:38 dm-zero.ko
57kB or so max. But at the same time, these are loaded on nearly every Fedora system, and loaded as modules they're taking up at least 64kB .
