Ok, everything is working well, except for one last thing...
I load the driver the first time, and it loads correctly. I unload it and
reload it and it attempts to attach twice (with the exact same resource
values). I unload and reload it and it attempts to load 3 times, unload/reload
... 4 times (you see the pattern). If I load the second module I am working
on (exact same type as this module), it tries to re-attach the old module
"N" times (depending on the number of previous unload/reloads).
I am obviously building up state somewhere in the kernel... how can I get
rid of this "state"?
