I was wonder the samething abou the THIS_MODULE. Noticed a problem
with a driver because
I could not remove it from memory. My eyes began to spin when I was
trying to track the opens/closes in
the code.
That was OK, simple reboot fixed it. 8*)

Thank you.
I have done it the old fashioned way because I haven't found any good
explanation of the THIS_MODULE macro in the docs (and also not
in "Writing Linux Device Drivers").
