If you have compiled the modules as part of buildkernel
target, then all options from kernel would apply to all
modules, thus the bridge_ip6_checkbasic() function won't
be present in if_bridge.ko, and you would successfully
load the module.
P.S. This is not if_bridge neither INET6 problem. This is
generic problem with modules built outside of buildkernel
target.
