The call to pixcir_stop() was not required in the original version as well. It seems
that the root of the problem for remove() and suspend() that I was trying to solve
was in the pixcir_stop() function. i.e. the order of mb() and synchronize_irq();

But I like your version more since "running" reflects the behaviour more accurately
than "exiting".
