Initially I thought this fixes a bug when unloading the fc module. But this
change was just really fixing. So stringly speaking I don't think it really
workarounds a bug in the fc module unloading. I left the change in the series as
I though it makes sense to do the operation in reverse order.

So in short it's really just a cosmetic fix for blktests.
