Why the rename?

I don't understand what you do the symbol_get() here for.
Why not just call that function directly?

This is whitespace damaged, the second line needs to be indented
to the opening braces.

I would also suggest defining register_reset as a macro that
implicitly passes the THIS_MODULE argument, as other subsystems
do.
