There are parts of this that are just totally incompatible with it
being a module. For example, you can't register a replacement udelay
loop after the system has booted.

This is the second time I've faced a patch series wanting to remove
__init anntations to call it from a module, where the author has
clearly not analysed the code to see whether that is a valid thing
to do. This is unfair on reviewers - it is the submitters
responsibility to check that what they are doing is valid.

Moreover, in _this_ case, you will have received a kernel diagnostic
message stating that the call to register_current_timer_delay()
was ignored, so I also question whether you bothered to run-time
test this change.
