(In fact several can bind at same now, which is both bad and good feature). I understand that module can have aliases so it can bind to a bus. Of course I can do a 'request_module', but I think it isn't nice thing to do. I can also attach alias to uevent which is sent to udev, but its also not easy to do with mtd.
