Documentation: replace install commands with softdeps
Install commands should not be used to specify soft dependencies among
modules. When loading modules it's much better to have a softdep that
modprobe knows what's being done than having to fork/exec another
instance of modprobe to load the other module.
By using a softdep user has also an option to remove the dependencies
when removing the module (and if its refcount dropped to 0)
