-git2 seems to fix all the issues I had:

- rmmod works fine
- Sound is back and apps using it don't freeze
- usb devices seem to be detected correctly
- I will test wifi, but the first boot was ok (if not, I guess it's not 
related to this).

I guess next time I'll be more patient and wait a little more before 
trying a new kernel as soon as it's out :P

Thanks!!!
