don't allow module autounload
I wonder should autounloading be prohibited for all driver-class modules?
Why? Doesn't it make more sense to have a driver keep track of whether or not it has attached any instances, and prohibit the unload if the count is non-zero? If a device appears later, the driver can always be re-loaded...
