Digged a bit further into this. In init.h the module_init() / module_exit() macros are defined. They define an alias from the supplied function to init_module() / cleanup_module().
Users of init_module() / cleanup_module() do have a ifdef section like this:
#ifdef MODULE init_module() ... cleanup_module() ... #else module_init(modulename_init); module_exit(modulename_exit); #endif
So this seems to be modules that just needs a bit more porting to the new module structure if I get it right.
What I missed when I asked the question was the #ifdef MODULE part.
