Due to the autofs4 module using a file system type name of autofs different from the module containing directory name autoload did not function properly. To work around this kernel configurations have often elected to build the module into the kernel. This can result in selinux policies that prohibit autoloading of the autofs module which need to be changed. Add a comment about this to "possible changes" section of the autofs4 module help.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
