I suggest you add __unsafe(THIS_MODULE) to the end of your module_init

impossible for the user to unload the module, and print a message to
the kernel log explaining why.
 
 
 If a module_init() is present but a module_exit() is not then you 
cannot
unload the module.
(unless you enable CONFIG_MODULE_FORCE_UNLOAD and use rmmod's --force
option, in which case your kernel become tainted)
 
 
 Even better. We should be using this for netback and blkback too in 
that case.
