could you consider this preliminary patch? It fixes the problem for me
and Pavel agrees with it.

The problem is that module_get is called for each file opening while
module_put is called only when /proc inode is destroyed. So, lets put
module counter if we are dealing with already initialised inode.
  

The patch works fine for me, thanks.
