Summary:                    Function zt_register should get a Linux 2.6 module
and zt_unregister put
Description: 
Function zt_register should get a and function zt_unregister put a Linux
2.6 module. Module zaptel can call functions of registered modules and it
would be cleaner if zaptel itself took care of the modules not unloading
and leaving stale function pointers.

I'm a bit confused. Modules already increment and decrement their own
reference counts when channels are opened and closed.

What do you mean by 'leaving stale function pointers'? How could a module
get unloaded and not call zt_unregister() to remove the pointers that point
to it? How are you unloading a module that has a non-zero reference count?
