For messages like that, is the fact it's a module at all relevant?
(Consider the case of 3rd party code that's not a module, but builtin,
either via patching or via 'CONFIG_3RDPARTY_FOO=y' rather than =m?)

Separating primary kernel vendor from self-inflicted 3rd party software would
seem to be a more productive division.
