Oh, that might be required, yes. DRIVER_MODULE uses its arguments to define
a module name (in this case as "pci/mpr") and module names are required to
be unique. I believe you should be getting a printf warning about this on
the console. Something like:
"module_register: cannot register pci/mpr from blah.ko; already loaded from
foo.ko"
