    SOLARIS: convert from ancient _depends_on to ELF dependencies
    
    The ancient way of declaring module dependencies with _depends_on has
    been deprecated since SunOS 2.6 (circa 1996). The presence of the old
    _depends_on symbol triggers a warning message on the console starting
    with Solaris 12, and the kernel runtime loader (krtld) feature of using
    the _depends_on symbol to load dependencies may be removed in a future
    version of Solaris.
    
    Convert the kernel module from the ancient _depends_on method to modern
    ELF dependencies.  Remove the old _depends_on symbol and specify the -dy
    and -N <name> linker options to set the ELF dependencies at link time,
    as recommended in the Solaris device driver developer guidelines [1].
    
    This commit does not change the declared dependencies, which may be
    vestiges of ancient afs versions.
