Hi Linus,
may be you know about the bug in sound driver (at least for SB) that prevents you from unloading soundcore even if there is no modules using soundcore's resources. This patch is a piece from 2.1.124ac2. It's not very original, but seems to do the job without any harm (for me). I think it would be nice to be in the future kernels if nobody have troubles with it.
