question about modules rewrite

Now that the kernel modules implementation has been rewritten for the
better and the interface changed somewhat, is there any reason to have
both sys_create_module() and sys_init_module()?

Why isn't the functionality of sys_create_module() in
sys_init_module()? It might be better to move it because then you
could have sys_create_module() return ENOSYS. This would have the
effect of causing the older, unsupported module utilities to bail out
early.
