I've been looking at some of these embedders as reported by Kees[1], and
most of them are for dummy interfaces. I.e, they are basically used for
schedule NAPI poll.

From that list[1], most of the driver matches with:

	# git grep init_dummy_netdev

That said, do you think it is still worth cleaning up embedders for
dummy net_devices?

Yes, I think so.
Kees, did you plan to send a v2? Otherwise I can put the cleanup on our
"public ToDo" list :)
