Subject[PATCH] There should have a warn/log when out-of-tree module is loaded
I can not get any hint when I found that my kernel is tainted (out of
tree module is loaded). And I checked all loaded and loadable modules
but it showed that all of them are intree modules.
I think we need a warn when out of tree module is loaded.
