Poudriere did not rebuild the kmod ports since there was no 
__FreeBSD_version change. I usually force it being rebuild by hand, but 
this time I forgot!

I did force pkg reinstall for it by hand, but this just reinstalled the 
same previous package.

In the end I forced rebuilding it and reinstalling everything and the 
issue disappeared.
