In most cases, VLAN means _lots_ of interfaces, so chances are that it is not
really an edge node. But this was not the reason why I included stp and garp.

AFAIR, 8021q doesn't load without garp, which in turn doesn't load without
stp (or the other way around). But I will double-check to make sure that only
needed modules will be really loaded.
