And its not just network drivers (IIUC)
The module usage count only counts uses/dependencies of other modules,
userspace deps are *not* counted.
ForEx:
$ lsmod |grep '0 $'
radeon 106849 0
battery 9413 0
ohci1394 35205 0
uhci_hcd 32465 0
ohci_hcd 21981 0
I can assure you that I am currently using the screen driven by the
radeon driver.
Might be it is happening that in 2.6 kernel version ,the way to manipulate the count of references to a module is outside of the module but in 2.4 kernel we used to do within module by MOD_INC_USE_COUNT macro. In 2.6 kernel though
the kernel is executing within the module, but the reference count could be zero. I thought for radeon driver it is happening...
