Manoj,

You don't need to list all the dependencies of ext4 - kernel-wedge
will resolve those for you. That is, if you just add 'ext4', then
jbd2, crc32, etc will automatically get included in the
fs-core-modules udeb. It's easier to maintain that way since we don't
have to keep track of dependencies manually, plus it avoids bloating
udebs like crypto-modules (if crypto_crc32c is only a dependency of
ext4, better to ship it w/ ext4).

The only time you do need to explicitly list a module dependency is
when modules in 2 or more other udebs require it, since a module
should only exist in 1 udeb. kernel-wedge will catch and report that
for you.
