Subject[PATCH] module: check vermagic match exactly when load modules
Date
Usually, checking kernel version will be ignore when loading
modules if CONFIG_MODVERSIONS option is enable. This could
potentially lead to a mismatch with the running kernel.

With this option, we prevent to load the modules which vermagic
is not match exactly with the running kernel.

It could be set to N by default.
