The fastest fix is drop my patch 7/9, 8/9, they depend on the interface change
of patch 6/9，but other patches don't rely on either of them.. And I can repost
them after v6.2-rc1.
Otherwise, you'll need to modify your patch, take the module reference before
invoking callback and put it after it is called, without passing modname.
