7. try to kldunload udf

Yeah, it was loaded by kernel indeed, but WTF - what is the difference
from manual/loader.conf loading and why I can not manage my modules as I
wish?

Hmm, the relevant code (vfs_init.c) hasn't changed in 6.x since 6.0. There
were some changes in 7.0, but this should work in both branches. What is the
previous release that this worked on?


Maybe I was wrong when I called this regression, but this was very
surprising behavior for me. And in 5.X I did a lot of udf
debugging/experimenting and never encountered such a problem. Maybe I
always did kldload before mount, I can't tell now.
Anyway, this seems like an annoyance at the very least, pinning a kernel
module without any important reasons.
