cyclades module weirdness

On a terminal server system I just upgraded to linux 2.0.4, there is a
problem with the use of MOD_DEC_USE_COUNT or MOD_INC_USE_COUNT in the
cyclades module.

endor:~# uname -a
Linux endor 2.0.4 #13 Thu Jul 11 03:43:24 EDT 1996 i586
endor:~# lsmod
Module: #pages: Used by:
bsd_comp 1 12
ppp 5 [bsd_comp] 34
slip 2 0
slhc 2 [ppp slip] 34
cyclades 9 1042

The 1042 used by count seems unreasonalbe to me. I assume I will now
have to reboot if I want to upgrade the cyclades module. Though I hadn't
noticed it, 2.0.0 has the same problem. The cyclades driver version in
2.0.4 is $Revision: 1.36.3.7 $$Date: 1996/04/19 21:06:18 $
