Documentation: replace install commands with softdeps

Browse Source 
Install commands should not be used to specify soft dependencies among
modules. When loading modules it's much better to have a softdep that
modprobe knows what's being done than having to fork/exec another
instance of modprobe to load the other module.

By using a softdep user has also an option to remove the dependencies
when removing the module (and if its refcount dropped to 0)

@@ -54,8 +54,8 @@ Loading MSS and OPL3 needs to pre load the aedsp16 module to set up correctly
the sound card. Installation dependencies must be written in configuration
files under /etc/modprobe.d/ directory:
install ad1848 /sbin/modprobe aedsp16 && /sbin/modprobe -i ad1848
install opl3 /sbin/modprobe aedsp16 && /sbin/modprobe -i opl3
softdep ad1848 pre: aedsp16
softdep opl3 pre: aedsp16
Then you must load the sound modules stack in this order:
sound -> aedsp16 -> [ ad1848, opl3 ]
