I expect to have a machine (with a crazy number of CPUs/devices) available

The original machine I was able to reproduce with is blocked for a little

issue easily.

OK give this a spin:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/linux.git/log/?h=20230316-module-alloc-opts

I'm seeing about ~86 MiB saving on the upper bound on memory usage
while hammering on kmod test 0008, and this is on a small system.

Probably won't help *that* much but am curious... if it helps somewhat.

How much cpu count BTW?

220 physical ones and 440 virtual ones.
