linux-modules nls_utf8

[Dmitrii Kuptsov]

Greetings!

I'm running a couple of noble VMs with linux-virtual metapackage for 
kernel. Some of them use cifs.ko-mounted samba shares with UTF-8 in file 
paths. Unfortunately, nls_utf8.ko is currently not included in non-extra 
linux-modules-* packages, so some filenames look weird on client side.

I've already switched to linux-generic (with linux-modules-extra-* 
dependency) and this works.

However, is it expected that non-extra modules provide nls_ucs2_utils.ko 
and nls_iso8859-1.ko, but not nls_utf.ko (e.g. if it's considered extra 
by packaging policy) or should I file a bug?
