You cannot. GENERIC kernel specifically enables IPv6 support and you need to disable it at compile time.
And if you do, you better rebuild the world too using WITHOUT_INET6=yes in the /etc/src.conf
or else some utilities compiled with INET6 by default will query kernel
for IPv6-specific data (like routing entries) and complain that your kernel does not know about it.

World built WITHOUT_INET6 has no such rough edges.
