Thanks a lot for this extra link. Yes, I agree.

I set up this as a module because /sys/modules has much more than what
is actually a module, and the "module" concept brings it the idea
of module parameters, that are available for built-in code too, with
the module namespace.  But it's actually not used in this case.

Thanks
