Hi Eric,

I just wanted to check if this is solved already, as I don't want to keep an
unnecessary revert patch in our internal branches.
According to my check bug still exists.
I will handle this today, thanks for the reminder.
Did you have a chance to do this? It looks like the original change
landed on mainline and causes modules to be autoloaded on KOBJ_UNBIND
again.

Thanks!
I sent the following to Tariq, and he tested it successfully.

I will submit this formally.
