I believe those are just probes to initialise modules if present.  My
/etc/conf.modules contains, amongst other entries:

alias net-pf-3 off      # no ax25
alias net-pf-4 off      # no ipx
alias net-pf-5 off      # no appletalk

I can't remember when I added those, but they'll stay until there's a
reason to remove them.  :-)
