With the serial driver loaded as a module, when I try to unload it,
rmmod never returns, consuming all cycles on one CPU. After calling
rmmod, lsmod lists the modules like so:

Module Size Used by
serial 0 0 (uninitialized)
eepro100 15004 1 (autoclean)

Although sometimes serial is listed as (deleted) rather than
(uninitialized). It is impossible to kill the rmmod process as far as
I can tell, the only solution is a reboot.

.config is attached, please CC any replies to me.
