Oops, yes, that was my intention but I forgot to fix that
before I sent it out.   This code works as a module, but
in order to make the whole system allow the module to be both
removed and re-inserted safely, I need some work to be done
on the modem end and that's beyond my direct control.  I have
been testing with it as a kernel built-in driver in the mean
time.

In any case, it is my intention to have it be normally built
as a module and I will ensure that when I send out future
revisions of this series.
