I though we were talking about

static data_used_by_callbacks;
...
register_foo(&stuff_with_callbacks);
...
unregister_foo(&stuff_with_callbacks);
make_unusable(&data_used_by_callbacks)
...
/* oops, we just got a callback */

("data_used_by_callbacks" could be a pointer to kmalloc'ed
memory, etc.)

This kind of problem seems to be understood well enough.
But maybe you mean something else ?
