I have no dgnc device in my laptop. After *insmod* and *rmmod* dgnc module,
I can re-insmod dgnc successfully. If dgnc is *rmmod*, the dgnc-file in /sys
will disappear.

Yes, I thought dgnc_init_module should be fixed. But I'm not familiar with
how to submitting patchset. I decide to fix dgnc_cleanup_module() first.

Maybe we can fix the *init* and *exit* like this:

    static int __init dgnc_init_module(void)
    {
        int rc;

        rc = dgnc_start();
        if (rc < 0)
            goto err1;

        rc = pci_register_driver(&dgnc_driver)
        if (rc <0) {
            goto err1;
            pr_warn("....");
        }

        rc = dgnc_create_driver_sysfiles(&dgnc_driver);

        if (rc = 0)
            goto err2;

        return rc;
         
    err2:
        pci_unregister_driver(&dgnc_driver);
    err1:
        dgnc_end();

        return rc;
    }
    
    static void dgnc_cleanup_module(void)
    {
        int i;

        dgnc_remove_driver_sysfiles(&dgnc_driver);

        for (i = 0; i < dgnc_NumBoards; ++i) {
            dgnc_remove_ports_sysfiles(dgnc_Board[i]);
            dgnc_tty_uninit(dgnc_Board[i]);
            dgnc_cleanup_board(dgnc_Board[i]);
        }

        pci_unregister_driver(&dgnc_driver);

        dgnc_end();
    }
