You could get some inspiration from a patch I posted some time ago which 
attempted to lock modules when the frontends where in use. In this patch 
I passed the module reference from the card specific budget code to the 
core in the ttpci_budget_init() call.

There were some problems reported with the patch not working on 2.4, but 
I ran out of time and lacked the hardware to diagnose and fix the problem.
