Can you explain? Normally if a module is no longer in use, it
can be unloaded. I'm sure that there are number of folks
who would like to know how come it's now necessary to reboot
to get rid of some module no longer in use.

It can be unloaded given that the needed locking
and cleanup code are in place...

ie 2.6.10-ac, although I've only enabled it for a few controllers so far
for testing purposes.
