Now as these are all compilable as modules, should we look into the drivers as
well to see what they are doing on module unload ?

Thanks!

hmm.. it seams to be the case, yes. From a quick look, there are unreleased resources
that needs to be freed. However, they are not really on module unload,
but on device removal. Which should be a reproducible but even today, in
case one manually unbinds the device.

Let me have a look here and will be sending something soon.


Thanks,

Eduardo Valentin
