Oh, good catch. I've done a bit a review and found two cases:
- Driver unload code. Already fairly broken, made much worse by my series
  here. I've fixed that up yesterday and will resend the series with those
  additional patches and revised patches.
- cmd parser. I guess that should be a fixup patch on top. I'll also do
  that.

Have you spotted any other places?

Thanks, Daniel
