Hi!

Do we have to block module loading?

No. Registering new drivers is okay, registering new devices is bad.

Of course, some modules do want to register a new device in their init
method. I don't know what we should do about them. Force the
registration to fail, I suppose. How often will people suspend while a
module is loading?

Well... plug this pcmcia card into the slot so that I do not have to
carry it separately, close the lid and go?

...not that impossible to imagine...

I useually leave my broadband card in the slot, but not seated. I wouldn't bet against it getting pushed in enough to be detected while putting the laptop in the bag.
