I was hoping that some people with more understanding of how linux
modules work in general could give some context :-)

The difference between the error path and normal exit is that it's
more likely for the kernel to be in a bad state if it's the error
path.

Maybe the earlier patches to cleanup namespaces before removing kernel
module improves this enough. If we come across this problem, we can
investigate it then (or revert this patch).
