That's not really something you can guarantee, is it? Experience has
shown us that binary modules tend to do silly things which can
compromise the integrity of the whole system, so it's not unreasonable
to ask for a reproduction without them, particularly as most kernel
debugging time is volunteer best effort.
In this case the problem looks to be udev and timing related, so having
it reproduced without these modules eliminates a real source of
uncertainty.
