FWIW, I think it's time to get rid of kernel-modules-extra entirely.
The premise originally was "put modules that aren't widely used or
that we think are of lesser quality in here, and stop building them
entirely over time".  It hasn't really paid off because we never
actually disable anything in there and it causes this kind of
installation pain.  There's value in kernel-core/kernel-modules, but
kernel-modules-extra doesn't provide much value by itself.
