char-major-foo modules don't necessarily refer to language support.

It can be fixed by compiling the kernel with the appropriate module. If
the message mentions char-major-10-135, it's looking for rtc.o (real
time clock). When a kernel compiled with rtc as a module, then booted,
the error would go away.
