Another issue:

imx_csi                 5491  4
imx_camif              11654  4
imx_ic                 23961  8
imx_smfc                6639  4
imx_media              23308  1 imx_csi
imx_mipi_csi2           5544  1
imx_media_common       12701  6 imx_csi,imx_smfc,imx_media,imx_mipi_csi2,imx_camif,imx_ic
imx219                 21205  2

So how does one remove any of these modules, say, while developing a
camera driver?  Having to reboot to test an update makes it painfully
slow for testing.

Philipp's driver can do this (once the unload bugs are fixed, which I
have patches for).
