Where is gb_audio_manager_get_module() called from? So far as I can
see it's
never used. Why not just delete it?

I agree with this. I suspected all callers might have guaranteed
that the "id" value passed would be always valid, but... there are
no callers.
It is a simple function, and could be added back again if it is
needed in the future (possibly even by reverting the commit that
removes it).
If you do this, please remove gb_audio_put_module() in the same
patch. It too has no callers.
Thank you.

I tried to find the caller before I modified it, but unfortunately I
didn't find the caller, so I suspect some non-kernel driver code will
try to call this functions.
I just found this problem while reading the code and I'm not sure if I
should remove the function.
