I missed one, there's also on in kunit (I think just got in, it's from
this year at least per commit). That one seems actually legit, it's a
selftest for some statistics around slabs I think, so has a legit
reason to carefully control the state and trim anything that just
hangs around.
I'll add something and push when CI approves.

I think if we can land this, then yours, then I type the conversion to
explicit init/exit and we're done.
