Which part of it?

If there is a driver/subsystem code that can't handle the reverse 
operation to modprobe, it clearly can't handle error handling during 
modprobe (which, one would hope, is supported), and should be fixed.

If there is a particular issue in kernel dynamic linker that causes crash 
on module removal, we'd better off fixing it. Is there one such that makes 
you claim module removal unsupported?

Thanks,
