This is bug is reported very often mostly on ubuntu based distoros.
There is no linkage dependency so it doesn't produce entry in the
depmod.
mac should somehow request these modules dynamically. If I understand
correctly is not so straight forward since there might be alternative
hw acceleration modules for  these modules.
