Nah, that's the wrong answer.  The kernel shouldn't crater if hotplug isn't
present.

Slapping another dependency on the kernel image packages would mask the 
problem instead of fixing it, so I'm uninclined to implement this request.
Better someone track down and fix what's actually blowing up in the kernel,
I think.
