Totally makes sense. I'll add the detail above that the prior design was
a result of chronology.

Agreed. I'll rename to VSOCK_TRANSPORT_F_DGRAM_FALLBACK, unless we find
there is a better way altogether.

Yes, I think using something like this:

[...]
bool module_got = false;

[...]
if (!try_module_get(transport->module)) {
err = -ENODEV;
goto out;
}
module_got = true;

[...]

out:
if (likely(transport && !err && module_got))
module_put(transport->module)
