ARGH KERNEL
You can't define CONFIG_NETFILTER=y in a monolithic kernel and expect
later to separately build some modules that use it, because there are
a bunch of symbols that only get defined if certain other CONFIG
options are set at the time that the monolithic kernel is built.
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/net/netfilter/core.c#L689
Another example is
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/include/linux/netdevice.h#L160
- if you decide after building the kernel that you're going to build
some wireless modules, you can't do that without rebuilding the kernel
so that it knows to expect them
The moral of the story seems to be: if you have a compiled Linux kernel source tree and you change some symbol from "is not set" to m and then run make modules, you cannot in general expect that newly compiled module to work.
