For reference, for 3), we would need to tweak the following ~130
modules [1]. Quite a lot of them are the simple kind. Also, if we end
up with 3), we could potentially remove a few modpost checks (e.g.
ANY_INIT_TO_ANY_EXIT).

I am submitting the patch for 2). It requires introducing the new
attribute, so let's see if people like it.

Cheers,
Miguel
