In Arch Linux, kernel updates blow away the old modules so you cannot 
load modules anymore. Downgrading will just revert that situation and it 
does not need internet: pacman -U 
/var/cache/pacman/pkg/linux-version.pkg.tar.xz should do it. ProTip: 
reboot after kernel updates.

TBH this email thread was confusing.
