No automatic reaping of modules

I don't know if it's an already known issue but as I didn't see
anything about it in lkml I post this bug-report:
My modules aren't removed automatically from kernel, even if I do
'rmmod -a', absolutely none is removed.
I had this behaviour since many kernel versions...

Here are some infos:
