1. Psmouse and input event drivers don't have module alias autoload support. I think it should be possible to do this similar to how misc_device works.

I've just been having a look at this, and have attached an example patch (untested, and only partial) - does this look like the right approach? The various input event drivers each use a range of minor numbers, so if people think I'm doing the right thing so far, I'll take these into account when I finish my changes.

2. /proc interface in /dev/rtc doesn't seem to have MODULE_OWNER ref counting.

No idea about this. SET_MODULE_OWNER is defined to a no-op, and I can't find any info as to its purpose. Can anyone enlighten me?
