    I've just grepped over the tree for reamining MOD_INC_USE_COUNT users, and
    ftape is a really horrible one, it relies on MOD_{INC,DEV}_USE_COUNT in the
    most horrible places + it's own bookkepping and the <= 2.4 may unload
    hooks.  And although I don't have the hardware I can guarantee it doesn't
    work as expected.
    
    So let's just remove the module_exit handler and mark it unremovable, if
    someone wants to fix up ftape later it's fine with me, but it's a really
    scary driver..
