Umm, because this modules doesn't do anything perhaps? You've
declared init and cleanup routines, but there are two problems with
them.
1. You haven't used the module_init and module_exit macros to actually
register them as init/exit routines.
2. They're empty
There is no possible way for your hw_disable_irq() routine to get called.
Cheers,
g.
