Those messages happen when a mix of downstream & upstream modules happen.
Namely:
- Both downstream vs upstream modules have the same name. Thus userspace loads
either one.
- Upstream modules require another module which is available as upstream &
downstream. In some cases via alias.
One could fix this, by stripping/avoiding the build of the downstream module
when the kernel is new enough/has the equivalent module.
Please kindly forward this to the relevant team/person :)</pre>
