IMO adding them to kernel wedge does not make sense as long as that 
results in the modules being added in generic kernel udebs (such as 
nic-modules) for arches where they are sure to be unused.

It would be different if there were XEN-specific udebs.

If they are added in kernel-wedge, they should definitely not be added in 
nic-modules, but in nic-extra modules (and the same goes if they are 
added in the arch-specific packages and not in kernel-wedge).

Just my 2 cents.
