Just because you see a warning does _NOT_ mean that you should implement
a dummy function to get rid of the warning.  It's telling people that
it's unsafe to unload the module.  Adding the dummy function doesn't
change that fact - it's still unsafe.  The only difference is that we
don't know about it anymore.

The warning is serving its purpose - its telling us that something isn't
right.
