In the end it's just style alignment with most of the other "busses"
in the kernel, like pci, of, acpi, platform and so on...

But yes I admit it's not a huge win. For the harder to read part, I
doubt it. A quick:
git grep -E module_.*._driver drivers/ | wc -l
has 3896 hit's, so it's not that uncommon ;-)

But anyways, it's just code churn I came up with while being
frustrated hunting down a bug in this subsystem.

Byte,
Johannes
