kld problem at Atheros AR9132

[Adrian Chadd]

hiya,

you're not booting an elf kernel, right? You're booting a binary only
kernel with none of the elf bits included (ie, the header, other
sections), etc? Right?

You can't do kldload if you're not booting an elf kernel because the
kernel elf linker doesn't know how to handle it.

This is why freebsd-wifi-build boots elf kernels. :-)
