Lukas, it is my understanding that module load and unload are racy
behaviors. Perhaps you should be careful how frequently you load and
unload modules. :)

For forcing the module to load, I think you can simply rename the module
in the filesystem, and then load the renamed module. The checks aren't
too bright. Whether your module will continue to work once renamed is up
to you to figure out. :)
