   I prefer the latter.  Maybe the mode function will never be called.
   For example, it makes it possible to remove (require 'generic) from
   generic-x.el.  So you can just load generic-x.elc to define a bunch of
   major modes (and add them to auto-mode-alist) and generic.el will only
   be loaded when you actually use one of them.

   Why do you prefer adding (require 'generic)?

generic is a tiny file.  (generic-x is the large one.)
