This is what a lot of the callers really wanted.

[PATCH] more obsolete module API fixes

completly remove the old try_inc_mod_count()

[PATCH] avoid deprecated module functions in core code

2002-12-29T08:40:46Z

A second start at removing them from kernel/*.c and fs/*.c. Note that module_put is fine for a NULL argument.

[PATCH] In-kernel Module Loader

2002-11-11T01:08:07Z

This is an implementation of the in-kernel module loader extending the try_inc_mod_count() primitive and making its use compulsory. This has the benifit of simplicity, and similarity to the existing scheme. To reduce the cost of the constant increments and decrements, reference counters are lockless and per-cpu. Eliminated (coming in following patches): o Modversions o Module parameters o kallsyms o EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL and MODULE_LICENCE checks o DEVICE_TABLE support. New features: o Typesafe symbol_get/symbol_put o Single "insert this module" syscall interface allows trivial userspace. o Raceless loading and unloading You will need the trivial replacement module utilities from: http://ozlabs.org/~rusty/module-init-tools-0.6.tar.gz
