Hmm interesting.

A quick test here on an iMacG5 shows that we get into a state where we can't
remove windfarm_core:

  $ lsmod
  Module                  Size  Used by
  windfarm_smu_sensors    7549  2
  windfarm_core          15391  1 windfarm_smu_sensors


Which means we can't trigger windfarm_core_exit() and the BUG_ON().

I also get an oops when removing windfarm_lm75_sensor, so I suspect there are
gremlins in the module ref counting for windfarm.

I'll merge this as probably correct.
