Yes, it makes sense.  I haven't had a chance to send it to netdev for
comments yet though.  It would be good to know what the design was
behind putting the destructor method there in the first place.  If you
get a chance to send it, that would be a good thing to do.

Well, we already have the problem for 2.6.15 and earlier, so I'm not
sure if this is that big an issue.
