The idea was to increase module count on /proc/drbd access. If someone holds /proc/drbd open, previously rmmod would "succeed" in starting the unload, but then block on remove_proc_entry, leading to a situation where the lsmod does not show drbd anymore, but /proc/drbd being still there (but no longer accessible). I'd rather have rmmod fail up front in this case. And try_module_get() seemed most appropriate. Lars
